Prenylindoles from Tanzanian Monodora and Isolona Species

Abstract
6-(3-Methyl-but-2-enyl)-1,3-dihydro-indol-2-one, annonidine F [3-[6-(3-methyl-but-2-enyl)-1H-indolyl]-6-(3-methyl-but-2-enyl)-1H-indole], 1H-indole-5-carbaldehyde, 6-(3-methyl-2-butenyl)-1H-indole, 6-(3-methylbuta-1,3-dienyl)-1H-indole, 6-(4-oxo-but-2-enyl)-1H-indole and 3-geranylindole were isolated from Monodora angolensis (Annonaceae) while 3-(1,1-dimethyl-but-2-enyl)-5-(3-methyl-but-2-enyl)-1H-indole (caulidine A), 4-[3-(1,1-dimethyl-but-2-enyl)-1H-indol-5-yl]-but-3-en-2-one (caulidine B), 5-(3-methyl-2-butenyl)-1H-indole and 5-(3-methylbuta-1,3-dienyl)-1H-indole were obtained from Isolona cauliflora (Annonaceae); structural determination by spectroscopic analysis. Some of the prenylindoles had antifungal and antimalarial activities.
