The structure of the title compound (I) has been determined from three-dimensional diffractometer data. The structure was determined directly by the symbolic addition procedure, and refined by least-squares methods to R 5.8% for 2014 observed non-zero reflections. The crystals are orthorhombic, space group P212121 with Z = 4 in a unit cell of dimensions: a = 14.258, b = 13.481, c = 10.090 Å. The ring system of this alkaloid is novel but it has a 2-azabicyclo[3,3,1]nonane ring, a common moiety in daphniphyllum alkaloids.
