Guiaflavine, a New Bisindole Quaternary Alkaloid from the Stem Bark of Strychnos Guianensis

[en] A reinvestigation of Strychnos guianensis resulted in the isolation of a colored quaternary bisindole alkaloid from the stem bark. The structure of this new substance, guiaflavine (1), was defined by detailed spectroscopic methods and comparison with model compounds.
