Abstract
Three quaternary pavine alkaloids, caryachine N-metho salt, neocaryachine N-metho salt and crychine N-metho salt were isolated from a callus culture of Cryptocarya chinensis. Neocaryachine N-metho salt is reported for the first time as a natural product. The effect of various culture media components on the growth of callus, and the production of caryachine N-metho salt were also investigated.
