Abstract
The genus Derris is a rich source of rotenoids and prenylated flavonoids. Chemical examination of Derris heyneana, a rare species of Derris, led to the isolation of stigmasterol, lupeol, three rotenoids, 6a,12a-dehydrotoxicarol, dehydrodeguelin, 12-deoxo-12α-acetoxyelliptone and the isoflavone, 4-O-methylderrone. All compounds were isolated by sequential chromatography and characterized by NMR and MS spectral data. The flavonoids are reported for the first time from D. heyneana.
