Description
Summary:Three new compounds, a dihydrobenzofuran (coumaran) derivative (compound <b>1</b>) and two pterocarpans (compounds <b>2</b> and <b>3</b>) were isolated from a root extract of <i>Calicotome villosa</i> growing wild in Corsica. Their structures were elucidated using 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy and MS/MS as 2-(1-methylethenyl)-5-hydroxy-6-carbomethoxy-2,3-dihydro-benzofuran, 4,9-dihydroxy-3-methoxy-2-dimethylallylpterocarpan, and 4,9-dihydroxy-3′,3′-dimethyl-2,3-pyranopterocarpan.
