title: Funebradiol, a new pyrrole lactone alkaloid from Quararibea funebris flowers.
abstract: The flowers of Quararibea funebris have yielded another new pyrrole lactone alkaloid, named funebradiol [1]. This compound was elucidated by the use of nmr, ir, and mass spectral interpretation. A potentially new biosynthetic pathway is postulated.
