Nat Prod Res. 2005 Feb;19(2):151-5. doi: 10.1080/14786410410001704769.

Abstract

Cymosanine (1) and three further known quassinoids, cedronin (2), chaparrinone (3), and simarolide (4), were isolated from the root bark of Simaba subcymosa. The structures were established by spectroscopic data, mainly 1D, 2D NMR and mass spectra.
