Abstract
Abstract Forty-one Rauwolfia alkaloids were tested using 11 chromogenic reagents. Ferric chlorid-perchloric acid reagent was preferred for general use. The dihydroindole alkaloids comprised the most readily definable group but aricine, 10, 11-dimethoxyheteroyohimbines, sarpagine and ar-substituted 18-hydroxy-yohimbines and their esters could be distinguished using various reagents.
