Urea derivatives from Pentadiplandra brazzeana

J Nat Prod. 1999 Oct;62(10):1435-6. doi: 10.1021/np990111f.

Abstract

Four urea derivatives were isolated from the roots of Pentadiplandra brazzeana, and their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic techniques. N-Benzyl-N'-(4-methoxybenzyl)urea (1) is a new compound, although N,N'-di-(4-methoxybenzyl)urea (2), N,N'-dibenzylurea (3), and p-methoxythiobenzaldehyde (4) are reported from a natural source for the first time.
