Analysis of the extracts of the ant Myrmicaria melanogaster from Brunei in the Indonesian archipelago by GC-MS and GC-IR revealed the presence of five new alkaloids, identified as (9Z)-3-propylindolizidine (1), cis- and trans-2-butyl-5-propylpyrrolidine (2 and 3, respectively), (10E)-3-butyllehmizidine (7), and (5Z,8Z,9Z)-3-butyl-5-propyl-8-hydroxyindolizidine (10a), whose structures were established by comparison with synthetic samples. In addition the monoterpene hydrocarbons beta-pinene, myrcene, and limonene were detected along with all four isomers of 3-butyl-5-methylindolizidine (4a-d), cis- and trans-2-butyl-5-(4-pentenyl)pyrrolidine (5a and 5b), trans-2-butyl-5-pentylpyrrolidine (6), (5Z,9Z)-3-butyl-5-propylindolizidine (8), and (5Z,9E)-3-butyl-5-propylindolizidine (9), alkaloids well known from ants and frogs, whose structures were established on the basis of published spectra or comparison with authentic samples. This study utilized vapor-phase infrared analysis for the assignment of stereochemistry using Bohlmann bands for the bicyclic alkaloids and, in the case of 10a, the detection of an intramolecular hydrogen bond. A biogenetic relationship between the mono- and bicyclic ring systems is proposed.
