_Nepenthes_ is known to contain (presumably acetogenic, cf. _Drosera_ and
_Triphyophyllum_!) naphthoquinones of mild toxicity. No alkaloids known (to
me - it would be terrific if anyone knew some!), no cyanogens, no iridoids,
no ellagic acid.
However, I would not call the plants harmless (they are e.g. rather
dangerous to ants...;-)).
Kind regards
