- Abstract
Two new sesquiterpenoids belonging to the guaiane, 4α,9α,10α-trihydroxyguaia-11(13)en-12,6α-olide ( 1 ), and germacrane, 9β-hydroxyparthenolide-9- O -β-D-glucopyranoside ( 2 ), classes have been isolated from the leaves of the Saudi medicinal plant Anvillea garcinii along with seven known compounds ( 3 - 9 ). The structures of the new metabolites were elucidated by spectroscopic analysis, including one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) and high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HR-ESIMS). The antimicrobial properties of 1 - 9 were screened against seven different pathogenic microbes, and compounds 1 - 3 showed a potent antifungal activity.
