Rubescins I and J, further limonoid derivatives from the stem bark of <i>Trichilia rubescens</i> (Meliaceae)

Abstract

Two new tetranorterpenoid derivatives named rubescins I (1) and J (2), were isolated along with six known compounds including rubescin D (3), lichexanthone (4), scopoletin (5), scopoletin O-glycoside (6), β-sitosterol (7) and stigmasterol (8) from the stem bark of Trichilia rubescens (Meliaceae). The structures of the compounds were determined by means of MS, different NMR and by comparison with related data reported in the literature.
