Sedum

Lysine-Derived Alkaloids. Just as putresciae (36) derived from ornithine (23) is coasidered the pregenitor of the aucleus fouad ia pyrrolidine-containing alkaloids, so cadavetiae [462-94-2] (44), C H 4N2, derived from lysiae (24) is the idealized pregenitor of the 1-dehydropiperidine [28299-36-7] nucleus (45), C H N, found in the pomegranate, Sedum Dobelia, Dupin, and Lycopodium alkaloids (39).

In addition to lupines, poison-hemlock and Nicotiana spp., other plant species of the genera Genista, Prosopis, Lobelia, Cytisus, Sophora, Pinus, Punica, Duboisia, Sedum, Withania, Carica, Hydrangea, Dichroa, Cassia, Ammondendron, Liparia, and Colidium contain potentially toxic and teratogenic piperidine alkaloids. Many plant species or varieties from these genera may be included in animal and human diets (Keeler and Crowe, 1984).
