Abstract
Bioassay-guided fractionation of the EtOAc extract of both Allamanda c athartica and Himatanthus fallax (Apocynaceae) using the Sc-7 yeast st rain resulted in the isolation of the weakly cytotoxic isoplumericin a nd plumericin. In addition, the new lignan 7(R)-methoxy-8-epi-mataires inol and three known compounds, plumieride, matairesinol, and pinoresi nol, were isolated from H.fallax.
