Published: December 2004

Examination of the methylene chloride soluble portion of the acetone extract of the seeds of Turreanthus africanus yielded two labdane diterpenoids 12,15-epoxylabda-8(17),12,14-trien-16-al (1) and 16-acetoxy-12(R),15-epoxy-15beta-hydroxylabda-8(17),13(16)-diene (2) and a limonoid, 17-epi 12-dehydroxyheudebolin (3). Structures elucidation was based on the analysis of spectroscopic data.
