Abstract

The absolute crystal structures of two related ergot alkaloids dihydro-α-ergokryptine mesylate (1) monohydrate ethanol solvate and dihydro-β-ergokryptine mesylate (2) monohydrate methanol solvate have been determined by X-ray diffraction and compared with the published structures of dihydroergocristine mesylate (3) monohydrate and dihydroergotamine mesylate (4) monohydrate.

Keywords: Ergot alkaloids; Dihydro-α-ergokryptine; Dihydro-β-ergokryptine; X-Ray structure.
