Phragmalin limonoids from Chukrasia tabularis

Phytochemistry. 2004 Oct;65(20):2833-41. doi: 10.1016/j.phytochem.2004.08.010.

Abstract

Six phragmalin limonoids, named tabulalin and tabulalides A-E, were isolated from the root bark of Chukrasia tabularis (Meliaceae). Their structures were determined by spectroscopic methods, and their antifeedant properties evaluated.
