Abstract
The chloroform extract of Senna sophera leaves, after repeated chromatography
separation have yielded three bianthraquinones. Three of these were identified to
be floribundone-1(52),10-hydroxfloribundone-2 (V) and 5,7’-physcion-fallacinol
(74). To the best of our knowledge, there is no prior report on the isolation of 10-
hydroxyfloribundone-2 from any Senna species. 5, 7’-physcion-fallacinol reported
for the first time from the plant and floribundone-1 was isolated earlier from the
plant.
