Abstract:
The plants of Chimonanthus Lindl. are endemic traditional medicinal plants in China. As the important components of these plants, the Chimonanthus alkaloids showed biological activities such as hypotensive activity, anticonvulsant, antifungal, antiviral, analgesia, antitumor, and melanogenesis inhibitory properties. In this paper, the types, bioactivities, and synthesis of alkaloids in plants of Chimonanthus Lindl. were reviewed systematically for providing reference in the further research and development of Chimonanthus alkaloids.
