HIDE SMILES / InChI
Pseudoyohimbine is an alkaloid isolated from roots of Rauwolfia canescens and in trace amount from Uncaria attenuata. Also, it was found in the leaves, stem and bark of Alstonia quaternata and in root bark of Cabucala striolata and Catharanthus trichophyllus. Pseudoyohimbine is inactive in the periphery as well as in the central nervous system as an antagonist of a1- or a2-adrenoceptors.
