Abstract:
From the roots of Cassia kleinii two new oxanthrone esters, kleinioxanthrone-3 and kleinioxanthrone-4 have been isolated. Their structures were established as 1,8-dihydroxy-3-methyl-9(10H)-anthracenone-10-oxyhexadecanoate 3 and 2,6,7-trihydroxy-1,8-dimethoxy-3-methyl-9(10H)-anthracenone-10-oxydecanoate 4 respectively based on degradative and spectroscopic evidence.
