Alkaloids of the Australian Eutaceae: Evodia xanthoxyloides F. Muell. II. Isolation of the Alkaloids from the Leaves

Abstract

From the leaves of Evodia xanthoxyloides nine alkaloids, evoxanthine, melicopidine, evoxine, xanthevodine, xanthoxoline, evoxanthidine, evodine, evolidine, and evoxoidine were isolated. There was also obtained a tenth nitrogenous substance (X) which was shown to be 4-hydroxy-2,3-dimethoxy-10-methylacridone. This is not claimed to be an alkaloid as it may have been formed by demethylation during the isolation.
