Chemical Constituents of Calophyllum Inophyllum and Cratoxylum Glaucum (Guttiferae)

Extensive studies on the plants, Calophyllum inophyllum and Cratoxylum glaucum have resulted in the isolation of ten compounds. All these compounds were isolated by means of chromatographic methods and their structures derived on the basis of spectroscopic evidence, mainly 1D and 2D nuclear magne...
