In this paper, nine limonoids were isolated from Carapa guianensis and Cedrela fissilis and were assayed on Atta sexdens rubropilosa workers showing moderate insecticidal activities.
Abstract
Nine limonoids were isolated from Carapa guianensis and Cedrela fissilis Among them, 1,2-dihydro-3b-hydroxy-7-deacetoxy-7-oxogedunin is a new compound Moreover, the assignments of some chemical shifts of xyloccensin k have been corrected and 1H NMR data of 7-deacetylgedunin have been assigned for the first time These isolated limonoids were assayed on Atta sexdens rubropilosa workers showing moderate insecticidal activities

Meliaceous limonoids: chemistry and biological activities.

TL;DR: This paper aims to demonstrate the efforts towards in-situ applicability of EMMARM, as to provide real-time information about concrete mechanical properties such as E-modulus and compressive strength.

Antiplasmodial activity of the andiroba (Carapa guianensis Aubl., Meliaceae) oil and its limonoid-rich fraction

TL;DR: The traditional use of andiroba oil as antiplasmodial, which additionally proved not to be toxic in bioassays conducted with mice, is supported.

Isolation of Limonoids from seeds of Carapa guianensis Aublet (Meliaceae) by high‐speed countercurrent chromatography

TL;DR: The use of gradient mode in HSCCC was a good alternative, exploiting small variations of partition coefficient between the substances, and it was possible to isolate limonoids in a good relative abundance, compared with classical chromatographic methods.
