Secoiridoids
Secoiridoids are special forms of iridoids . They differ in a cleavage of the cyclopentane ring , which leaves them only with a heterocyclic six-membered ring. The cleavage can be used for further synthesis, so that two six-membered rings are formed. The parent compound of the secoiridoids is secologanin , which is a key compound in the biosynthesis of most indole alkaloids , the china , ipecacuanha and pyrroloquinoline alkaloids as well as simple monoterpene alkaloids .
