Abstract

Two alkaloid derivatives, oriciacridone A and B, were isolated from the stem bark of Oriciopsis glaberrima (Rutaceae). The structures were elucidated by a detailed spectroscopic analysis. The extract exhibited in vitro significant antimicrobial activity against a range of micro-organisms.
