Secondary metabolites from Dracontomelon dao (Merr. & Rolfe)

The dichloromethane extract of the leaves of Dracontomelon dao (Merr. & Rolfe) has led to the isolation of anacardic acid (1), β-sitosteryl-3β-glucopyranoside-6'-O-fatty acid esters(2), β-sitosterol (3), phytol (4), a mixture of phytyl fatty acid esters (5) and β-sitosteryl fatty acid esters (6), chlorophyll a (7), squalene (8),long-chain fatty alcohols (9), and long-chain hydrocarbons (10). The structures of 1-10were identified by comparison of their NMR data with literature data.
