Antiplasmodial Bis-Indole Alkaloids from the Bark of Flindersia pimenteliana
Three new (1-3) and 2 known (4-5) bis-indole alkaloids were identified from the bark of Flindersia pimenteliana (Rutaceae). The structures of 1-3 were elucidated on the basis of their (+)-HRESESIMS and 2D NMR spectroscopic data.
