Limnophilaspiroketone, a highly oxygenated phenolic derivative from Limnophila geoffrayi

J Nat Prod. 2005 Jul;68(7):1134-6. doi: 10.1021/np050132b.

Abstract

A highly oxygenated phenolic spiroketone, limnophilaspiroketone (1), was isolated from the aerial parts of Limnophila geoffrayi collected in Thailand. The structure of 1 was determined based on spectroscopic data interpretation. This novel isolate, obtained as a major secondary metabolite constituent, was verified as a racemate using the Mosher ester method.
