“…Previous research on this species were commonly reported under Michelia figo. The leaves from Taiwan was previously reported to constitute a sesquiterpene lactone (11,13dehydrolanuginolide), alkaloid ((-)-nuciferine, (-)-anonaine, and N-methylcorydaldine), steroids (β-sitostenone, stigmasta-4,22-dien-3-one), benzenoids (p-hydroxybenzaldehyde, phydroxybenzoic acid, methylparaben, vanillin), chlorophylls (pheophytin a, pheophorbide a, pheophytin b, pheophorbide b, aristophyll-C, 132-hydroxy-(132-S)-pheophytin a) [19]. However, information regarding their antimalarial were limited.…”
