The energetic viability of the previously proposed biogenetic pathway for the formation of two unique monoterpenoid indole alkaloids, voacafricine A and B, which are present in the fruits of , was investigated using density functional theory computations. The results of these calculations indicate that not only is the previously suggested pathway not energetically viable but also that an alternative biosynthetic precursor is likely.
利用密度泛函理论计算，对先前提出的用于形成两种独特单萜吲哚生物碱（沃卡非辛A和B）的生物合成途径的能量可行性进行了研究，这两种生物碱存在于[植物名称]的果实中。这些计算结果表明，不仅先前提出的途径在能量上不可行，而且可能存在另一种生物合成前体。
