title: Acutifolins A-F, a new flavan-derived constituent and five new flavans from Brosimum acutifolium.
abstract: Acutifolin A (1), a novel constituent with a bicyclo[3.3.1]non-3-ene-2,9-dione ring, acutifolins B-F (2-6), five new flavans, and three known flavans were isolated from the bark of Brosimum acutifolium, a Brazilian folk medicine ("Mururé"). Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods, including 2D NMR.
