Abstract

Veratrum alkaloids, like solanum and kurchi alkaloids, form a group of steroid alkaloids. The veratrum group, unlike the other two, have largely a modified steroid skeleton and exist as glyco and ester alkaloids in liliaceous plants belonging to the sub-order Melanthaceae. Although investigations on these compounds are recorded since the early nineteenth century (153), their complex structures were elucidated only during the last two decades by the independent and collaborative work of some of the world’s leading organic chemists. An added reason for recent interest in these alkaloids is the high hypotensive activity of some of their natural esters. Although this interest has waned since the discovery of the superior hypotensive ester alkaloid reserpine, extensive work on veratrum alkaloids has revealed a wealth of interesting, and at times intriguing, chemistry.
