Examinations were made on the alkaloids of commercial crude drug “Moku-Boh-i” which originates from Cocculus trilobus DC. The chief alkaloid isolated was magnoflorine.
It had been impossible to separate and identify trilobine and isotrilobine from their mixture by the usual paper chromatography but it was found that the two bases could be separated by the use of a multi-buffered paper chromatography. By this method, the presence of a minute amount of trilobine and isotrilobine in “Moku-Boh-i” was proved.
