9. (a) Biosynthetic Classification - alkaloids are produced in
the plant biosynthetically. all alkaloids having been derived
from the same precursor but possessing different taxonomic
distribution and pharmacological activities.
Examples
(i) Indole alkaloids derived from tryptophan.
(ii) Piperidine alkaloids derived from lysine.
(iii) Pyrrolidine alkaloids derived from ornithine.
(iv) Phenylethylamine alkaloids derived from tyrosine.
(v) Imidazole alkaloids derived from histidine.

10. (b) Chemical Classification- is the presence of the basic heterocyclic
nucleus
Examples
(i) Pyrrolidine alkaloids e.g., Hygrine;
(ii) Piperidine alkaloids e.g., Lobeline;
(iii) Pyrrolizidine alkaloids e.g., Senecionine;
(iv) Tropane alkaloids e.g., Atropine;
(v) Quinoline alkaloids e.g., Quinine;
(vi) Isoquinoline alkaloids e.g., Morphine;
(vii) Aporphine alkaloids e.g., Boldine;
(viii) Indole alkaloids e.g., Ergometrine;
(ix) Imidazole alkaloids e.g., Pilocarpine;
(x) Diazocin alkaloids e.g., Lupanine;
(xi) Purine alkaloids e.g., Caffeine;
(xii) Steroidal alkaloids e.g., Solanidine;
