Key Word Index - Pachygone ovata; Menispermaceae; leaves and stems; dibenzo-p-dioxin biphenyl bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloids; pachiovatamine. - A new dibenzo-p-dioxin biphenyl bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloid, pachyovatamine, has been isolated from an extract of the leaves and stems of Pachygone ovata from Sri Lanka.The alkaloid was characterized by a consideration of its physicochemical data and conversion to O-acetyltiliacorinine.Pachyigonamine, N-methylpachygonamine and tiliamosine were also isolated from the same extract.
