Abstract

Three new gedunins, an andirobin, three mexicanolides, and two phragmalin-type limonoids named andirolides H (1), I (2), J (3), K (4), L (5), M (6), N (7), O (8), and P (9) were isolated from an oil of the flower of Carapa guianensis Aublet (Meliaceae). Their structures including the absolute configurations were determined by means of the NMR and CD spectra as well as FABMS. Andirolide H (1) showed antimalarial activity against Plasmodium falciparum in vitro.
