ABSTRACT
From an EtOAc-soluble fraction of the leaves of Azadirachta indica, two new 28-norlimonoids named nimbandiolactone-21 (1) and nimbandioloxyfuran (2), together with nimbandiolactone-23 (3), were isolated. Their relative structures were elucidated based on NMR spectroscopic interpretation and biosynthetic consideration. Nimbandioloxyfuran (2) and nimbandiolactone-23 (3) showed potent α-glucosidase inhibitory activity, with the IC50 values of 46.2 and 38.7 µM, respectively.
