Abstract
From gametophytes of Mnium hornum have been isolated a sophorotriose caffea te, three biflavonoids, among them the first biflavone methyl ether from a moss, and six derivatives of 4,2'-epoxy-3-phenylcoumarin - a group of isofl avone-related compounds - that has been found so far only in some seed plan ts. The structures of all compounds were elucidated and confirmed spectrosc opically, (C) 1999 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
