pubmed:abstractText |
A new indolizidine alkaloid has been isolated from the seeds of Castanospermum [1] australe and identified as 7-deoxy-6-epi-castanospermine by ms and 1H- and 13C-nmr spectroscopy. The alkaloid is the first trihydroxylated indolizidine to be isolated from this plant and may represent an intermediate in the biosynthetic pathway to the tetrahydroxy-indolizidines and -pyrrolizidines. It inhibits amyloglucosidase and yeast alpha-glucosidase but is significantly less active as a glycosidase inhibitor than its isomer swainsonine [2] and the tetrahydroxylated alkaloids castanospermine [3], 6-epi-castanospermine [4], and australine [5].
