The pyrrolizidine alkaloids are a group of chemical compounds which occur naturally in certain genera of the Compositae, Lugminosae and Boraginaceae. The alkaloid molecule consists of a basic methylpyrrolizidine ring with one or more hydroxyl groups esterified by mono-or di-basic carboxylic acids (Warren, 1955).
