Chemical Properties

Occurrence A dimeric alkaloid, bonafousine occurs in Bonafousia tetrastachya (Himbolt Bonpland et Kunth ) Markgraf. It forms colourless needles when crystallized from MeOH and is laevorotatory with a specific rotation of [α]D -35°(c 1.0, CHCl3). The ultraviolet spectrum in EtOH has absorption maxima at 228,286,294 and 300 nm. Reduction with LiAlH4 furnishes bonafousinol, an amorphous powder with no definite melting point.
