Abstract
Indole alkaloids (15) were isolated from the root bark of R. mombasiana and 13 identified. The principal alkaloids were reserpine, rescinnamine, ajmalicine and ajmaline. The distribution of alkaloids throughout the plant axis is discussed. Reserpine occurs chiefly in the roots.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
