Abstract
The Sumatran forest plants Lerchea cf. bracteata and L. parviflora were found to contain alkaloids and their extract showed siginificant activity toward some testing pathogenic microbes. Isolation work on L.cf bracteata yielded known quaternary alkaloid N(b)-methylantirhine (2) while L. parviflora gave 5,6-dihydroflavopereirine (3).
