Abstract
Two. novel epimeric compounds, viminadione A (1) and viminadione B (2), hav e been isolated by bioassay-guided fractionation of the aerial parts of Cal listemon viminalis and their structures (including relative stereochemistry at C-7, C-8, and C-9) elucidated by spectroscopic methods. Viminadione A ( 1) exhibits moderate insecticidal activity in comparison with natural pyret hrum extract. Viminadione B (2) is less active.
