Voacamine, also known under the older names voacanginine and vocamine, is a naturally occurring dimeric indole alkaloid of the secologanin type, found in a number of plants, including Voacanga africana and Tabernaemontana divaricata. It is approved for use as an antimalarial drug in several African countries.^[1] Voacamine exhibits cannabinoid CB1 receptor antagonistic activity.^[2]

Chemistry

[edit]

Structure

[edit]

There is considerable confusion about the absolute stereochemical configuration of voacamine and the originally published absolute structure had to be later revised.^[3]^[4] It has an ibogaine unit joined with vobasine unit.

Adverse Effect

[edit]

Voacamine can cause hypertension in high dose.^[5]
