Abstract

Cordiaquinones are antifungal and larvicidal meroterpenoids isolated from Panamanian plants such as Cordia linnaei. In 1990, Messana and co-workers reported the isolation and structures of cordiaquinones A (1) and B (2) (Fig. 1). 1 After their identification of cordiaquinones from the plant, several cordiaquinones have been isolated. 2. and 3. In 2000, Hostettmann and co-workers reported the structures of cordiaquinones J (3) and K (4) isolated from C. curassavica ( ...
