Abstract:
Bioassay guided fractionation of a MeOH extract of the stem bark of Syncarpia glomulifera (Myrtaceae) led to the isolation of the two new phloroglucinol derivatives (±)-rhodomyrtosone F (1) and (±)-calliviminone I (2), the three known triterpenes, betulinic acid (3), ursolic acid-3-acetate (4), and ursolic acid (5), and 1-(2,4,6-trihydroxyphenyl)-1-hexanone (6). Compound 1 exhibited strong antiplasmodial activity, while compounds 2-4 were moderately active and 5 and 6 were inactive in this assay. The structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated based on analyses of their mass spectrometric data, 1D and 2D NMR spectra, and comparison with related compounds.
