Abstract

Antifungal activity guided fractionation of solvent extracts of the stem bark of Bridelia retusa of the family Euphorbiaceae against Cladosporium cladosporioides, furnished new bisabolane sesquiterpenes, (E)-4-(1,5-dimethyl-3-oxo-1-hexenyl)benzoic acid, (E)-4-(1,5-dimethyl-3-oxo-1,4-hexadienyl) benzoic acid, (R)-4-(1,5-dimethyl-3-oxo-4-hexenyl)benzoic acid and (-)-isochaminic acid, together with the known (R)-4-(1,5-dimethyl-3-oxohexyl)benzoic acid (ar-todomatuic acid), 5-allyl-1,2,3-trimethoxybenzene (elemicin), (+)-sesamin and 4-isopropylbenzoic acid (cumic acid). All these compounds showed fungicidal activity on TLC bioautography method at very low concentrations except elemicin.
