Abstract
From the air-dried powdered leaves of Murraya exotica L. (Rutaceae), six methoxylated flavones were isolated and identified as: 3,5,6,7,8,3`,4`,5`,-octamethoxyflavone; 3,5,6,7,3`,4`,5`,-heptamethoxyflavone; 5,6,7,3`,4`,5`,-hexamethoxyflavone; 5,6,7,3`,4`,-pentamethoxyflavone; 3,5,7,3`,4`,5`,-hexamethoxyflavone and 3,5,7,8,3`,4`,5`,-heptamethoxyflavone. The identification was based on physical, chemical and spectral studies including 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and MS analysis. The antimicrobial and cytotoxic activities of the isolated compounds were studied.Keywords
