New alkaloids from the fruiting bodies of Ganoderma sinense

Four new alkaloids, sinensines B–E (1–4), together with one known alkaloid, sinensine (5), were isolated from the fruiting bodies of Ganoderma sinense. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of 1D and 2D NMR spectra analysis. The structure of sinensine E was confirmed by X-ray crystallographic analysis of its acetyl product (4a).
