Abstract: The alkaloids shihunine and dihydroshihunine have been isolated from the corms of Behria tenuiflora Greene. The chemotaxonomic value of these alkaloids is discussed.

monocotyledons families of Amaryllidaceae (1, 2), Liliaceae (3—5) and even into the complex Amaryllidaceae-Allieae (6). Two alkaloids have been isolated from B. tenuflora, and subsequently identified as the pyrrolidine bases shihunine (1) and dihydroshihunine (2). Their structures and biosynthesis (7) are completely different from the Amaryllidaceae alkaloids, which are exclusively found in this plant family (8), and therefore have chemotaxonomical value. From the biological point of view, compound I has been recently shown to be an inhibitor

kaloid has been previously isolated only from Dendrobium lohohense, D. pierardii (Orchidaceae), and Banisteriopsis caapi (Malpighiaceae) (10—12). Spectroscopic measurements showed that 1, when crystalline or dissolved in non-polar sol-
vents, has the structure of a phthalide-pyrrolidine alkaloid (la). However, when it is dissolved in MeOH, the alkaloid is
converted into the betaine form (lb), which can be retransformed into the original form by evaporating the solvent. The IR spectrum (in Cd4) showed a strong ester carbonyl band at 1763 cm1, and the El-MS fragmentation pattern showed a parent peak at m/z = 203 and the base ion at nh/z = 158, formed by decarboxylation of the phthalide ring. Although the 1H-NMR (200MHz, CDCI3) spectrum was reported before (12), some
doubts about assignments were still present. For this reason, unambiguous assignment was performed by 2D NMR
methods (see Table 1), On the contrary, only a reversal of the pair C-9/C-10 of 13C-NMR assignments was required (7), taking into account the HMQC and HMBC experiments (see Table 2).
Furthermore, NMR spectra of the betaine form (ib) were also carried out, and included in Tables 1 and 2.
Compound 2, which crystallized from MeOH, should be regarded as a product from hydrogenation of 1, and has been isolated only once before, from B. caapi (12). Its El-MS showed a parent peak at m/z = 205 (
