Melicopidine is an alkaloid. Its formula is C₁₇H₁₅NO₅. It, along with melicopine and melicopicine, is named for the Australian rutaceae (Melicope fareana) from which it was first isolated.^[2]

Occurrence

As an alkaloid, melicopidine naturally occurs in and has been isolated from Medicosma fareana^[3] and Sarcomelicope megistophylla^[4] in addition to Melicope fareana.^[2]
