Abstract

Three new isoflavonoids, griffonianone A (1), B (2) and C (4) were isolated from the root bark of Millettia griffoniana, along with the known maximaisoflavone G (5) and 7-hydroxy-6-methoxy-3',4'-methylenedioxyisoflavone (6). Their structures were assigned on the basis of spectroscopic data and chemical transformations.
