| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
This amorphous alkaloid occurs in Amsinckia intermedia Fisch & Mey, and has
also been isolated from A. hispada (Ruiz et Pav.) Johnst. and A. lycopsoides
Lehm. It is dextrorotatory with [α]20D + 4.0° (c 0.79, EtOH) and + 4.8° (c 2.39,
EtOH). Alkaline hydrolysis furnishes retronecine and (+ )-trachelanthic acid. The
structure has been confirmed by synthesis, the spectra indicating that the alkaloid
is present in the plant as a racemate | [Uses]
A-MELANOCYTE STIMULATING HORMONE SYNTHETIC is suitable for skin and hair lack of melanin. 5% eye drops can improve the eye's ability to adapt to darkness. Effective for retinal degeneration or pigmentary degeneration. | [References]
