Bioassay-guided fractionation of an extract of a mixture of Microphilis guyanensis and Genipa americanacollected in the rainforest of Suriname yielded the known alkaloid cryptolepine (2) as the major active compound in a yeast bioassay for potential DNA-damaging agents; the same compound was later reisolated from M. guyanensis. The structure of cryptolepine was identified unambiguously by spectral
