Abstract: | Evidence is presented for the probable identity of strychnicine, a Strychnos alkaloid isolated by Boorsma in 1902 but no longer available, with vomicine (4-hydroxy-N-methyl-sec.-pseudostrychnine). A product obtained in 1966 by Hifny Saber et al. and identified by them as strychnicine is different from Boorsma's compound and its nature remains uncertain. |
