Some of the main constituents of Marsdenia rostrata, originating from two localities, were isolated and identified. The sample from the Toonumbar State Forest in northern New South Wales contains the known alkaloid anabasine and two new steroidal ester alkaloids, rostratine and dihydrorostratine. They were identified as O-acetyl-O-nicotinoylsarcostin and O-acetyl-O-nicotinoyldihydrosarcostin. The sample from the South Coast of N.S.W. yielded the two new ester alkaloids and a number of neutral polyhydroxy pregnane aglycones, one of which has been identified as metaplexigenin, but there was no anabasine.
