19-Epivoacristine is an indole alkaloid found in different species of Tabernaemontana, such as Tabernaemontana dichotoma, as well as in Peschiera affinis.^[1] It is also known as 20-epivoacangarine and 19-epi-voacangarine.^[2]

Potential pharmacology

19-Epivoacristine may be a selective acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor in vitro.^[3]

19-Epivoacristine can be prepared by potassium borohydride reduction of voacryptine.^[4]
