Eight alkaloidal constituents have been isolated and structurally elucidated from Cephalotaxus mannii Hook. f. collected from the highland Lam Dong Province, Vietnam. They are: cephalotaxine (1), isoharringtonine (2), norisoharringtonine (3), desoxyharringtonine (4), nordesoxyharringtonine (5), cephalotaxine ???? -N-oxide (6), 3-epi-schellhammericine (7), and an isomer of 3-epi-schellhammericine (8). Among them, norisoharringtonine (3) is a new compound, while the other compounds are isolated from C. mannii for the first time. The structures of these constituents were determined by spectroscopic methods such as FTIR, ESI-MS, HR-ESI-MS, and NMR (1D, 2D) and by comparison with published data.
