• Tropane alkaloidNarrower topic: Tropane alkaloids belong to this broad family of plant and microbial natural products.

• N-alkylationRelated: N-alkylation helps create the varied amine substitution patterns found in alkaloids.

• Robert RobinsonNarrower topic: Alkaloids were the central class of natural products in Robinson’s structural and synthetic research.

• Polycyclic compoundRelated: Many alkaloids use polycyclic skeletons to organize their functional groups in three dimensions.

• BatrachotoxinNarrower topic: Batrachotoxin is classified as an alkaloid because its structure contains nitrogen and has potent biological effects.

• PapaverineNarrower topic: Papaverine's natural origin and pharmacology place it within this broad compound class.

• Fire salamanderNarrower topic: Samandarine, a defensive compound in its secretions, is an alkaloid.

• IsoquinolineNarrower topic: Isoquinoline is a structural foundation for a large class of alkaloids.

• MantellaRelated: Alkaloids in some Mantella skin secretions contribute to their toxicity.

• Amaryllidaceae alkaloidsRelated: Their nitrogen-containing structures place Amaryllidaceae compounds within this broader natural-product class.

• Coccinella septempunctataRelated: Defensive compounds in ladybird hemolymph make the beetle distasteful to predators.
