Echimidine – CAS 520-68-3

Abstract

Echimidine (CAS 520-68-3) is one of 3 C-7 isomers that coeluted in a cluster that was previously incorrectly assumed to comprise only Echimidine. Echimidine and its isomers are pyrrolizidine alkaloids isolated from Viper’s Bugloos (Echium plantagineum).

Pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) are a class of naturally occurring plant toxins that contain a pyrrolizidine structure. PAs are produced by plants as a defense mechanism against herbivores. They make up the largest class of naturally occurring alkaloids and are found in a vast number of plant species. PAs may cause adverse health effects when consumed at high levels, with indications for hepatoxicity.

Take a look at the rest of the pyrrolizidine alkaloid reference standards we have in stock.
