Abstract
Meliracemoic acid, a novel nor-sesquiterpenoid isolated from the honey of the New Zealand native tree kamahi (Weinmannia racemosa), has been shown to possess a substituted 2,5-methano-hexahydro-1,3-benzodioxola ne skeleton. The structure was determined principally by 1D and 2D NMR analysis of the corresponding methyl ester.
