Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/0031-9422(92)83310-U

Three carbazole alkaloids, glycozolicine, 3-formyl carbazole and glycosinine, have been isolated from the roots of Glycosmis pentaphylla.The structures of glycozolicine and glycosinine have been established as 5-methoxy-3-methyl carbazole and 2-methoxy-3-formyl carbazole, respectively, from physical and chemical evidence, and synthesis.
