Sandine: a catharanthus-derived alkaloid

J.-M. Gu and X.-R. Hu

Abstract: Sandine, C21H22N2O3, which is a naturally occurring biologically active product derived from plants, is important as a possible starting material for the syntheses of valuable pharmaceuticals. The sandine framework consists of two five- and three six-membered condensed rings. One of the six-membered rings adopts a screw-boat conformation, one adopts an envelope conformation and the third is planar. Both five-membered rings have envelope structures. Molecules are linked into dimers by N-H...O hydrogen bonds. The asymmetric unit contains two molecules.
