Examination of the weakly basic fraction of the twigs and leaves of Cephalotaxus fortunei, a plant native to China, has resulted in the isolation and characterization of epiwilsonine, wilsonine and a new alkaloid named fortuneine.The structure of fortuneine was deduced by spectral and chemical means.In addition, epifortuneine was prepared and spectral data collected.Key Word Index - Cephalotaxus fortunei; Cephalotaxaceae; homoerythrina alkaloids; epiwilsonine; wilsonine; fortuneine; identification.
