Abstract

A new alkaloid has been isolated from the roots of Nicotiana tabacum. Its chemical structure was confirmed as 2,4-di(3-pyridyl)piperidine (anatalline) by elemental analyses, u.v., i.r. and NMR and mass spectroscopy and finally by its dehydrogenation to nicotelline. The biosynthetic route for this compound may be similar to that of anatabine, but it is not formed in a manner similar to anabasine from lysine. © 1968.
