Rauwolfia plants Rescinnamine

Rauwolfia plants, by extraction Deserpidine Rescinnamine Reserpine... [Pg.1608]

The occurrence of reserpine has been reported from all Rauwolfia species, with the exception of about half a dozen in which it is probably present in minute amounts. Renoxidine, the A-oxide of reserpine, has been isolated from R. vomitoria, R. serpentina, and R. canescens, and it may not be a natural product, since it could have been derived by autoxi-dation of the tertiary base which is abundant in these plants. If it was an artifact, the occurrence of other analogous A-oxides should have been noted, but so far the only other recognized case is raujemidine A-oxide, which is found along with the parent alkaloid, raujemidine (a minor base of R. canescens). In contrast to reserpine, deserpidine and rescinnamine are of restricted distribution, each being recognized so far in about ten species only. [Pg.296]
