Abstract

A new antifungal and radical scavenging 2-hydroxyflavanone, named mosloflavanone, was isolated from the dichloromethane extract of Mosla soochouensis together with the known mosloflavone and moslosooflavone. Structures were established by spectroscopic and chemical methods, as well as X-ray crystallography.

Key words
