Abstract

Quaternary alkaloids of the following species of Papaveraceae were studied. From Hunnemannia fumariaefolia SWEET cyclanoline, escholidine and alkaloid HF3 were isolated, from Papaver atlanticum BALL magnoflorine, from P. caucasicum MARSCH.-BIEB., P. dubium L. and P. litwinowii FEDDE ex BORNM. aporheine methohydroxide, and from P. pseudo-orientale (FEDDE) MEDW. a new alkaloid, isothebaine methohydroxide were isolated. In P. confine JORD. magnoflorine was found and in two chemotypes of P. rhoeas L. β-stylopine methohydroxide and aporheine methohydroxide could be proved.
