|Section2= |Section3= }} Pseudopelletierine is the main alkaloid derived from the root-bark of the pomegranate tree (''Punica granatum''), along with at least three other alkaloids: pelletierine, isopelletierine, and methylpelleteirine (C9H17ON), which yield 1.8, 0.52, 0.01, and 0.20 grams per kilogram of raw bark. Isopelletierine is optically inactive.〔http://library.sciencemadness.org/library/books/the_plant_alkaloids.pdf〕 It is a homolog of tropinone, and can be synthesized in a manner analogous to the classical Robinson tropinone synthesis, using glutaraldehyde (rather than succinaldehyde), acetonedicarboxylic acid, and methylammonium chloride.〔(Pseudopelletierine ), ''Organic Syntheses'', Coll. Vol. 4, p.816 (1963); Vol. 37, p.73 (1957)〕 Pelletierine sulphate is used medicinally in Iraq as an anthelmintic and anti-amoeboid. It triggers, like strychnine, a stimulant reflex, which is effective against tapeworms, ring worms and nematodes. Simple bark-extracts have recently been shown to be effective in vitro against the intestinal bacteria salmonella typhi, vibrio cholera, herpes simplex, HIV, and tumors.〔Mavlyanov S.
