==Chemical Composition==
AtisineThe milky sap contains a complex mix of chemicals, Aconitinesome of which are steroidal heart poisons known as "cardiac aglycones". These belong to the same chemical family as similar chemicals found in foxgloves (Digitalis purpurea). The steroidal component includes an hydroxyl group in the C3β position, Atisenola second attached to the C14 carbon, Atidine, Hetisine, Hetisinone, Banzolheteratisine, Histidine, Fa C/D-dihydroatisine, Heteratisine cis ring junction and Several diterpene alkaloids such aheterophyllinan α, heterophyllisinβ-unsaturated-γ-lactone in the C17 position. In the plants, heterophyllidinethe steroidal component is commonly attached via a glycosidic link to a 2-desoxy or a 2, and hetidine.<ref name="chemical composition"/>6-didesoxy sugar molecule
