Acalyphin (84) is obtained from the weed Acalypha indica (A. Narstedt, J.-D. Kant and V. Wray, Phytochem., 1982, 21, 101) whereas another 2-pyridinone, campedine (85), has been isolated from Campanula medium (W. Dopke and G. Fritsch, Pharmazie, 1970, 25, 128). It should be noted however that W-ethyl groups are most uncommon in nature, and the possibility that this compoud is an artefact is very likely.
