THE BIOSYNTHESIS OF THE ALKALOIDS OF CISSAMPELOS PAREIRA LINN

Tracer experimets show that the bisbenzylisoqunoline alkaloid,(S,R)-hayatidin (10) is stereospecifically biosynthesized in young Cissampelos pareira Linn plants by intermolecular oxidativ coupling of (S)-(5)-and (R)-(3)-N-methylcoclaurines whereas (R,R)-isochondrodendrine (14) and (R,R)-bebeerine (12) are formed in the plants by oxidative dimerization of (R)-N-methyl-coclaurine (3).
