ABSTRACT
Four new coumarins, isomurralonginol senecioate (1), isomurralonginoic acid (2), murrangatin 2'-formate (3), and meranzin hydrate 2'-palmitate (4), were isolated from the vegetative branches of Murraya exotica together with 33 known compounds. The structures of the new compounds were determined from chemical and spectroscopic data.

Four new coumarins, murrangatin-1'-senecioate (1), 5-methoxypanial (2), mexoticin-2'-senecioate (3) and murralongic acid (4), were isolated from the leaves of Murraya paniculata var. zollingeri, together with 23 known coumarins. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated based on spectroscopic data. The taxonomic status of M. paniculata var. zollingeri is briefly discussed, along with its similarity to M. paniculata.

Bismurrangatin and murramarin A, two new coumarins, were isolated from the vegetative branches of Murraya exotica. Murramarin A is a rare type of bicoumarin that connects two coumarin moieties by orthoester structure. The structures were elucidated based on spectroscopic methods, especially by 2D-NMR experiments.
