  • Title: Antifungal and larvicidal meroterpenoid naphthoquinones and a naphthoxirene from the roots of Cordia linnaei.
    Author: Ioset JR, Marston A, Gupta MP, Hostettmann K.
    Journal: Phytochemistry; 1998 Mar; 47(5):729-34. PubMed ID: 9542168.
    Abstract:
    Three new meroterpenoid naphthoquinones, the known cordiaquinone B and a new naphthoxirene have been isolated from the roots of Cordia linnaei. Their structures were established by spectrometric methods including EI, D/CI and FAB mass spectrometry, 1H, 13C and 2D NMR experiments. The naphthoquinones showed activity against Cladosporium cucumerinum, Candida albicans and the larvae of the yellow fever-transmitting mosquito Aedes aegypti, while the naphthoxirene derivative was found to be inactive in the same bioassays.
