Abstract
Bioactivity-directed fractionation of the CHCl3 extract of the bark of Erythrina burana afforded phaseollidin [1] and cristacarpin [2]. Both 1 and 2 exhibited moderate but selective activity towards DNA repair- deficient yeast mutants, whereas only 1 was found to be cytotoxic. C-1 3-nmr spectra of both compounds were assigned.
