(-)-Veranigrine, a new steroidal alkaloid from Veratrum nigrum L.

Abstract:

:A new steroidal alkaloid, (-)-veranigrine (1) was isolated from the roots and rhizomes of Veratrum nigrum L. By means of spectroscopic methods its structure was established as (20S, 25S)-iminocholesta-5,22(N)-diene-1beta,3beta-diol.
