Abstract
Resveratrol was identified and isolated as a minor stilbene derivative from the bark of Picea abies. Three derivatives of resveratrol and th ree additional derivatives of the primary stilbenes from P. abies bark were prepared. Improvement over piceatannol in antileukaemic activity was observed in a preliminary test.
