Abstract
From the root bark of Ventilago maderaspatana (Rhamnaceae) five isofuranonaphthoquinones have been isolated. Ventilone-A is 4,9-dihydro-5,8-dihydroxy-6,7-methylenedioxy-1-methylnaphtho[2,3-c] furan-4,9-dione and B is the 5-methyl ether. Ventilone-C has the structure 1,3,4,9-tetrahydro-8-hydroxy-5-methoxy-6, 7-methylenedioxy-1-methylnaphtho[2,3-c]furan-4,9-dione, D is the isomeric 8-methyl ether, and E is the 5,8-dimethyl ether. Structures were determined by spectroscopic methods, and X-ray crystallographic analysis of ventilone-C.
