Abstract
Active antimicrobial substances contained in Rumex japonicus Houtt. we re isolated by HPLC. As a result of the identification using MS, H-1 N MR, and C-13 NMR, trachrysone and 2-methoxystypandrone were found to b e antimicrobial compounds. Comparison of the antimicrobial spectra of trachrysone and 2-methoxystypandrone analogs suggested that the antimi crobial activity of trachrysone and 2-methoxystypandrone analogs was i nfluenced by the types of functional groups and positions of the hydro xyl groups.
