Abstract
Cordiaquinones C and D, two further examples of a new type of sesquite rpenoid quinones, have been isolated from the roots of Cordia corymbos a. Both are carboxylic esters of 6-hydroxyalkyl substituted naphthoqui nones. Cordiaquinone C has an unrearranged sesquiterpenoid skeleton wh ich can be considered the biogenetic precursor of the rearranged analo gues A and B described in previous work. Cordiaquinone D is the hexaco sanoic ester of cordiaquinone A.
