Wang) Two new isoquinoline alkaloids, 6R,6aS-N-nantenine Nβ-oxide (1), 6S,6aS-N-nantenine Nα-oxide (2), along with nine known alkaloids, nantenine (3), oxonantenine (4), protopine (5), nornantenine (6), N-methyl-laurotetanine (7), isocorydine (8), O-methyflavinantine (9), N-methyl-2,3,6-trimethoxymorphinan-dien-7-one Nβ-oxide (10) and (+)-10-O-methylhernovine Nβ-oxide (11) were isolated from the seeds of Nandina domestica. Their structures were elucidated by extensive analyses of spectroscopic data (IR, UV, HRESIMS, 1D and 2D NMR), ECD calculation and comparison with the related literatures. In addition, the cytotoxicity against A549 cells of these alkaloids were determined by the MTT assay. Keywords: Nandina domestica; isoquinoline alkaloid; cytotoxicity. 1 Contens: Pages: Fig. S1.
