Although data on the biological effects of natural oxazoles are not abundant, there are two reports on the antibacterial activity of texamine and texaline isolated from Amyris texana (Rutaceae). , Recently, it has been reported that the 2,5-diphenyl oxazoles, gymnothecaoxazoles A and B, were obtained from Gymnotheca chinensis (Saururaceae), and these compounds have a similar skeleton to the oxazoles isolated herein ( 1 – 11 ) …”
