Abstract:
Three new phragmalin limonoids, moluccensins H-J (1-3), were isolated from seed kernels of the cedar mangrove, Xylocarpus moluccensis. Their structures were established by extensive spectroscopic analysis. Compound 2 displayed weak antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus hominis and Enterococcus faecalis.
