Zusammenfassung
Die Teilstruktur I für Delphinin wurde eindeutig bestätigt. Eswurde gezeigt, dass die Pyro-Isopyro-Umwandlung von Delphininderivaten in der Allylumlagerung einer Methoxylgruppe besteht. Biogenetisch einleuchtende Gesamtstrukturen für Delphinin werden kurz diskutiert.

Footnote added to proof. — The ‘Hofmann degradation’ of delphinine in aqueous potassium hydroxide has now been clarified. It is initiated by a 1,3 cleavage in which the quaternary nitrogen and the hydroxyl, which formerly carried the acetyl group, participate. The endproduct is a monosubstituted 1–4 cycloheptane dione formed by loss of a methoxyl and two dealdolisations. Thus the modified structure XVII may be dismissed and the choice is merely between XIV and XIII.
