Monoterpene Lactones from the Seeds of Nephelium lappaceum

“…1 Chemical studies on the fruit have led to the identification of volatile constituents. 2,3 The seeds of the plant afforded type II cyanolipids, which were found to have insecticidal activity. 4,5 We report here the isolation, structure elucidation, and antimicrobial testing of 1 and 2 from the seeds of N. lappaceum.…”
