Abstract
Two new oxygenated heterocyclic constituents, named phyllanthusolactone and phyllanthodocosanyl ester, have been Isolated from the alocoholic extract of the root of Phyllanthus fraternus. The structures of the compounds have been established as 16-(18, 22, 22-trimethyl cyclohex-17-enyl)-4-methylhexadec-16-ol-3,17-diene-5,23-olide and 10-(12,16,16-trimethyl cyclohex-11-ene)-11- yl-3,7-dimethyldeca-2,4,6-triene-1-yl-n-docosan-13-one-18, 22-olide-1-oate, respectively on the basis of chemical reactions and spectral data.
