A new norditerpene alkaloid was isolated, 18-demethylpubescenine (1), in addition to four known compounds, 14-demethyltuguaconitine (2), takaosamine (3), gigactonine (4), and delcosine (5), from fresh, whole plants of Consolida orientalis. The structure of 1 was established by spectroscopic methods,
The structures of three new norditerpenoid alkaloids named dehydrodeltatsine (1), 14-O-acetyltakaosamine (2), 18-demethoxypubescenine (3) isolated from the aerial parts of Consolida orientalis (GAY) SCHROD., were elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy and HR-EIMS. Twelve known norditerpenoid
