Genista species are known to contain dipiperidine, tetrahydroisoquinoline, and several quinolizidine alkaloids. There are many reports on Genista species, however Genista anatolica Boiss. (Fabaceae) has not earlier been investigated phytochemically. In our present investigation, the total alkaloid content of aerial parts of Genista anatolica was found to be 0.16% by using titrimetric method. The alkaloids in the crude alkaloidal mixture were separated by preparative TLC and their picrate salts were prepared. The structures of these compounds were elucidated by comparison of their spectral and physical properties with literature data. They were identified as lupanine, 13-hydroxysparteine, anagyrine, Nmethylcytisine, cystisine, and (+) calycotomine. Although these alkaloids have been reported from a number of plants belonging to the family Fabaceae, 13-hydroxysparteine and calycotomine have not previously been isolated from Genista species. Infusions of Artemisia copa Phil. (Cornpositae, Anthemideae) (common name copa-copa), an endemic of the Andean regions of far northern Chile and Argentina, are used by the indigenous population for a variety of ailments. The plant has apparently not been investigated chemically. The present note briefly describes the isolation and identification of the guaianolides achillin and deacetylmatricarin and the flavones jaceidin (5, 7, 4'-trihydroxy-3, 5, 3'-trimethoxyflavone) and chrysosplenetin (5, 4'-dihydroxy-3, 6,7, 3'-tetramethoxyflavone) from the aerial parts of this species.
