Studies in natural products Part I. The biosynthesis of erythrina alkaloids Part II. An attempted in vitro demethylation of lanosterol

In Part I, hypotheses for the biogenesis of Erythrina alkaloids are discussed. Di-(β-3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-ethylamine the theoretical precursor predicted by the biogenetic theory, was prepared and ring closure to the erythrinane ring system by oxidative coupling was attempted under various conditions...
