| Thirteen compounds were isolated from the whole herb extract from Delphinium campylocentrum Maxim, and eleven of them were elucidated clearly based on the modem spectroscopic technologies including 1D- and 2D- NMR, MS, HRMS, CD, IR, etc. In such process, one novel hetidane-type diterpene skeleton, campylopin (1), and two new norditerpenoid alkaloids, campylocine (2) and campylotine (3), along with eight known alkaloids: delbrunine (4), talassimine (5), talassamine (6), talassimidine (7), deltatsine (8), delbonine (9), dehydrodeltatsine (10), and delbrunine monoacetate (11) were firstly discovered in this plant. The discovery of compound 1 implies a new biosynthetic pathway from the atisane or hetidane-type diterpene to the hetidine-type diterpenoid alkaloid. |
