In vitro screening of leishmanicidal activity in myanmar timber extracts.

TL;DR: From a literature search for reports on the chemical constituents of these plants, most constituents were found to be quinone derivatives or other compounds with unsaturated carbonyl groups.

The Chemistry of the Limonoids from Meliaceae

TL;DR: The chemistry of the limonoids was reviewed in this series by Dreyer (84); a more recent review is by Connolly, Overton and Polonsky (73), and taxonomic aspects have been reviewed recently by the present author.

Evolution of limonoids in the Meliaceae

TL;DR: Evolutionary trends of meliacin chemistry thus correspond to the morphological division of the Meliaceae, according to their basic skeletal specialization and state of oxidation.

Sesquiterpene lactones. Constituents of diploid and polyploid Ambrosia dumosa Gray

TL;DR: Diploid and polyploid forms of Ambrosia dumosa Gray have been found to differ markedly in chemical constitution, and the only identifiable lactonic constituent that is found in both forms is parthenolide.
