Abstract

A biologically monitored fractionation of methanol extracts of the fruit of Evodia rutaecarpa led to the isolation of quinolone alkaloids, evocarpin (1), 1-methyl-2-[(4Z,7Z)-4,7-tridecadienyl]-4(1H)-quinolone (2) and 1-methyl-2-[(6Z,9Z)-6,9-pentadecadienyl]-4(1H)-quinolone (3) as blockers of angiotensin II receptor binding with IC50 values of 43.4 μM, 34.1 μM and 48.2 μM, respectively. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
