Phloroglucinols from Baeckea frutescens.
Two new phloroglucinols, named BF-1 and BF-2, were isolated from the dried leaves of Baeckea frutescens. Their structures were determined by their 1H and 13C NMR and mass spectral data. BF-2 exhibited strong cytotoxic activity (IC50 = 5.0 micrograms ml-1) against leukaemia cells (L 1210) in tissue culture.
