Abstract

Myrtucyclitones A–C ((+)- and (−)-13), three pairs of new triketone-phloroglucinol-triketone hybrids were isolated from the plant Myrtus communis. Their structures with absolute configurations were established by NMR analysis and chemical calculations. Myrtucyclitones B and C exhibited remarkable antibacterial effect.
