Abstract
A new indole alkaloid, N,N-methyl-3'-indolylmethyl-5-methoxytryptamine, as well as the known gramine, N,N-dimethyltryptamine and 6-methoxy-2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-beta-carboline were isolated from the roots of Antirhea lucida (Sw.) Hook (Rubiaceae). Their structures were established by spectroscopic methods.
