Cepharatines A−D, Hasubanan-Type Alkaloids from Stephania cepharantha

Abstract
Four new hasubanan-type alkaloids, cepharatines A−D (1−4), were isolated from the leaves and stems of Stephania cepharantha, and their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic analysis. The structure of 1 was further confirmed by X-ray crystallographic diffraction.
