| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
A highly unsaturated alkaloid, cepharanone A also occurs in the callus tissue of
Stephania cepharantha. It forms a pale yellow amorphous powder having a sharp
melting point and gives a blue fluorescence. The ultraviolet spectrum in EtOHhas absorption maxima at 225, 232, 265, 277, 283, 328, 341, 376 and 393 nm.
Chemical and spectroscopic evidence has shown it to be a lactam of aristolochic
acid. | [References]
