Abstract
Two novel polyoxygenated cyclohexenes, 6-methoxyzeylenol (3) and 2-acetoxyz eylenone (4), together with two known compounds, zeylenol (1) and zeylenone (2), were isolated from the heartwood of the Chinese tree, Uvaria purpurea , Zeylenol (1) and zeylenone (2) both showed inhibitory activity toward the root growth of Lactuca sativa. Their structures were established by spectr oscopic and chemical methods.
