title: Flavonoids and terpenoids from Luma gayana (Barn.) Burret.
abstract: The flavonoids 5-hydroxy-7-methoxyflavanone, 6,8-dimethyl-5,7-dihydroxyflavanone and 2',4'-dihydroxy-6'-methoxy-3',5'-dimethylchalcone, a mixture of alkyl esters of p-coumaric acid, the triterpenoids oleanolic acid and maslinic acid, the monoterpenoid 1 alpha,2 beta,4 beta-trihydroxy-p-menthane, the sesquiterpenoid clovandiol and beta-sitosterol were isolated from the aerial parts of Luma gayana (Barn.) Burret. This is the first report on the chemistry of this species.
