Pegaharines A-G (-), six novel β-carboline alkaloids representing three types of skeleton, were isolated from the seeds of . Compound is a peculiar β-carboline alkaloid characterized by the unprecedented carbon skeleton of an azepine-indole system. Compounds - represent the first examples of heterodimers constructed from rare tetracyclic β-carboline and classic tricyclic β-carboline alkaloids. Compounds and were characterized by X-ray crystallography. Compound exhibited strong antiviral activity against HSV-2, with an IC value of 2.12 ± 0.14 μM.
