Abstract

The roots of Aconitum falconeri have yielded two new norditerpenoid alkaloids, faleoconitine (1) and 3'-methoxyacoforestinine (2) along with the known compounds, karakoline, 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4H-pyran-4-one, and 3,4-dimethoxymethylbenzoate, which have been isolated for the first time from this plant. The previously reported pseudaconitine (3) was also isolated. Compounds 1 and 3 were found to be moderate inhibitors of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase.
