Pyrrolidine alkaloids
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The pyrrolidine alkaloids are natural products chemically derived from pyrrolidine.[1]
Alkaloids with partial pyrrolidine structure are usually sub-categorized based on their occurrence and biogenetic origin. Hygrin and cuscohygrin were isolated from the leaves of the coca shrub,[2] while (-)-codonopsinine was isolated from the woodland vine tiger bell.[3]
