Abstract

The reaction of the aconitine-type alkaloids delphinine and delphisine, and the lycoctonine-type alkaloids delsoline, ajacine, and deltaline has been carried out with HBr-AcOH in glacial acetic acid. These reactions proceed by parial demethylation and acetylation of the hydroxyl groups formed during the demethylation.
