Five new quinolizidine alkaloids, including three sparteine‐type alkaloids ( 1 – 3 ) and two cytisine‐type alkaloids ( 4 and 5 ), along with four known ones, were isolated from the roots of Sophora flavescens . Their structures were determined by extensive spectroscopic techniques including IR , UV , NMR , and HR ‐ ESI ‐ MS . All the compounds were evaluated for their antibacterial activities against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli .
