Lopes, N.P. | Kato, M.J. | Yoshida, M.
Chromatographic fractionation of the dichloromethane extract from roots of Virola surinamensis yielded two new natural products, 3-epi-juruenolide C and 2'-hydroxy-7,4'-dimethoxyisoflavone, as well as various known steroids, lignans, isoflavones, flavonoids and diarylpropanes. Of these, alpha,2'-dihydroxy-4,4'-dimethoxydihydrochalcone, biochanin A and 2'-hydroxy-7,4'-dimethoxyisoflavone displayed antifungal activity against Cladosporium cladosporioides at a minimum amount of 5 microgram, whereas 7-hydroxyflavanone and 7-hydroxy-4'-methoxyisoflavone exhibited an antifungal activity 10-fold higher than the positive control Nystatin.
