Four new C19-diterpenoid alkaloids, hemaconitines A–D (1–4), were isolated from the roots of Aconitum hemsleyanum var. circinatum. Their structures were elucidated as 19R-hydroxyl-secoyunnaconitine (1), (3R)-hydroxyl-liwaconitine (2), 14-anisoyl-leucanthumsine E (3), and 19R -acetonyl-8-O-methyltalatisamine (4) by extensive spectroscopic analysis (IR, UV, HR-ESI-MS, 1D, and 2D NMR). © 2018, © 2018 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.
