The radical scavenging assay-guided fractionation of the root extract of Cnidoscolus souzae resulted in the isolation and identification of a novel bioactive dimeric diterpene with an ether linkage which has been designated as dinimbidiol ether (2). Evaluation of the antioxidant activity using the DPPH reduction assay showed that 2 is the most active metabolite in the crude extract of the plant.
