Rauwolscine, also known as isoyohimbine, α-yohimbine, and corynanthidine, is an alkaloid found in various species within the genera Rauwolfia and Pausinystalia (formerly known as Corynanthe).[1] It is a stereoisomer of yohimbine.[1] Rauwolscine is a central nervous system stimulant, a local anesthetic and a vague aphrodisiac.[1]

Rauwolscine acts predominantly as a α2-adrenergic receptor antagonist.[2] [3]It has also been shown to function as a 5-HT1A receptor partial agonist and 5-HT2A and 5-HT2B receptor antagonist.[4][5][6]
