  • Isolation and identification of nine alkaloids.
  • Characterization of four new alkaloids: 6-(2-hydroxyethyl)-5,6-dihydrosanguinarine (1), 6-acetonyl-5,6-dihydrosanguinarine (2), N-methyl-2,3,7,8-tetramethoxy-5,6-dihydrobenzophenanthridine-6-ethanoic acid (3), and N-methyl-2,3,7,8-tetramethoxy-6-oxo-5,6-dihydrobenzophenanthridine (4).
  • Identification of five known alkaloids: oxosanguinarine (5), spallidamine (6), 6-acetonyl-5,6-dihydrochelerythrine (7), 6-oxochelerythrine (8), and sanguidimerine (9).

    • Conclusions:

    • The roots of Corydalis flabellata contain a rich array of alkaloids, including novel chemical entities.
    • The identified alkaloids represent a significant addition to the known phytochemistry of the genus Corydalis.
    • Further investigation into the biological activities of these isolated alkaloids is warranted.
