Three dihydroxynortropanes, 2alpha,7beta-dihydroxynortropane, 2alpha,3beta-dihydroxynortropane, and 3alpha,7beta-dihydroxynortropane, were isolated from calystegine-producing plants in the families Convolvulaceae and Solanaceae. 2alpha,7beta-Dihydroxynortropane was isolated from six species in the Convolvulaceae whereas only Calystegia soldanella contained it and 2alpha,3beta-dihydroxynortropane. Although neither of these were detectable in three species tested in the Solanaceae, 3alpha,7beta-dihydroxynortropane was, however, isolated from Duboisia leichhardtii.
