Summary: | An investigation of the stem bark of <i>Erythrophleum suaveolens</i> (Guill. & Perr.) Brenan yielded the known amide norcassaide (<b>1</b>) and a new diterpenoid alkaloid named norerythrosuaveolide (<b>2</b>) which was characterized as 7β-hydroxy-7-deoxo-6-oxonorcassaide. The structures were established on the basis of one and two-dimensional <sup>1</sup>H and <sup>13</sup>C NMR spectral data. The compounds showed potent antimicrobial activities against bacteria and yeasts. |
