description | <i>Clivia miniata</i> (Amaryllidaceae) is an herbaceous evergreen flowering plant that is endemic to South Africa and Swaziland and belongs to one of the top-10 traded medicinal plants in informal medicine markets in South Africa. The species has been reported as the most important component of a traditional healer’s pallet of healing plants. Eighteen known Amaryllidaceae alkaloids (AAs) of various structural types, and one undescribed alkaloid of homolycorine-type, named clivimine B (<b>3</b>), were isolated from <i>Clivia miniata</i>. The chemical structures of the isolated alkaloids were elucidated by a combination of MS, HRMS, 1D and 2D NMR techniques and by comparison with literature data. Compounds isolated in a sufficient quantity, and not tested previously, were evaluated for their in vitro acetylcholinesterase (AChE; E.C. 3.1.1.7) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE; E.C. 3.1.1.8) inhibition activities. |
