Abstract
An isolate, diphysin, from the bark of the decay-resistant Costa Rican tree Dyphysa robinioides was shown to be a dimer (at C-3) of ihydro-4 -(4'-hydroxyphenyl)-5,7-dihydroxycoumarin. Diphysin is an isomer of th e previously known C-3 dimeric flavanone chamaejasmin, which was also found in the bark along with isovitexin.
