Pyrrolizidine alkaloids are believed to function as self-defense metabolites, protecting plants against herbivores (due to the confirmed inhibitory effect of specific PAs on acetylcholinesterase activity), or defending bacteria against predators such as amoeba.
Dichlorophenylphosphine is a colorless to pale yellow, pungent, and corrosive liquid, commonly used as a reagent in organic synthesis, particularly for preparing phosphine ligands and other organophosphorus compounds.

Hainanolide, also known as harringtonolide, is a natural product belonging to the class of cephalotane diterpenoids found in the genus Cephalotaxus. It is characterized by its complex, cage-like structure featuring a tropone ring, a fused tetracarbocyclic skeleton, a bridged lactone, and a tetrahydrofuran ring.
Cephalotaxus norditerpenes and strategies to the core structure: Harringtonolide, Fortunolide A, Fortunolide B, Hainanolide.
1,2-Dihydroisoquinoline is an organic compound belonging to the class of aralkylamines. It features a dihydroisoquinoline ring system, meaning the isoquinoline ring is partially reduced, and it has a nitrogen atom at the 2-position. These compounds are known for their instability and difficulty in isolation in a pure state.

4-Amino-2-hydroxybenzoic acid, also known as 4-aminosalicylic acid, is an aminobenzoic acid that is salicylic acid substituted by an amino group at position 4. It has a role as an antitubercular agent. It is an aminobenzoic acid and a member of phenols. It is functionally related to a salicylic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a 4-aminosalicylate(1-).
PXRD and FTIR spectra recorded for 1:1 caffeine/4-amino-2-hydroxybenzoic acid mixture (a, b) and 1:1 theophylline/ferulic acid mixture (c, d) obtained via liquid-assisted grinding.
Benzoic acid is a compound comprising a benzene ring core carrying a carboxylic acid substituent. It has a role as an antimicrobial food preservative, an EC 3.1.1.3 (triacylglycerol lipase) inhibitor, an EC 1.13.11.33 (arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase) inhibitor, a plant metabolite, a human xenobiotic metabolite, an algal metabolite and a drug allergen. It is a conjugate acid of a benzoate.
A class of dibenzylbutane derivatives which occurs in higher plants and in fluids (bile, serum, urine, etc.) in man and other animals. These compounds, which have a potential anti-cancer role, can be synthesized in vitro by human fecal flora. (From Singleton and Sainsbury, Dictionary of Microbiology and Molecular Biology, 2d ed)
