Ursane-Type Triterpenes, Phenolics and Phenolic Derivatives from <i>Globimetula braunii</i> Leaf
<i>Globimetula braunii</i> is a hemi-parasitic plant used in African ethnomedicine for the management of microbial infections, rheumatic pain and tumors amongst others. We report the isolation and characterization of eight compounds with their antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. Th...

<i>Globimetula braunii</i> is a hemi-parasitic plant used in African ethnomedicine for the management of microbial infections, rheumatic pain and tumors amongst others. We report the isolation and characterization of eight compounds with their antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. The air-dried powdered leaf was macerated in EtOH/H<sub>2</sub>0 (4:1). The extract was solvent-partitioned into <i>n</i>-hexane, EtOAc, <i>n</i>-BuOH and aqueous fractions.
