title: Cinnamic ester derivatives from Oxalis pes-caprae (Bermuda buttercup).
abstract: Seven new cinnamic ester derivatives ( 1- 7) were isolated from a methanol extract of the fresh leaves and twigs of Oxalis pes-caprae (Bermuda buttercup). The structures of these new compounds were determined by spectroscopic data interpretation. The effects of compounds 1- 7 on the germination and growth of Lactuca sativa (lettuce) were studied.
