RESUMEN
Octandrenolone (1) was prepared in high yield by condensation of 2', 4',6'-trihydroxyacetophenone with 3-chloro-3-methylbut-1-yne in the presence of a catalytic amount of copper(I) iodide. Methylation of 1 afforded O-methyloctandrenolone (2). Oxidation of 2 with m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid followed by hydrolysis gave the racemic trans-(+)-1-(9,10-dihydro-9,10-dihydroxy-5-methoxy-2,2,8, 8-tetramethyl-2H,8H-benzo[1,2-b:3,4-b']dipyran-6-yl)ethanone (3), which confirmed the structure of the natural product previously isolated from Melicope erromangensis.

The leaves of Comptonella microcarpa have yielded one alkaloid, dictamnine, and four known polyoxygenated flavonoids, meliternatin, 3,5,8-trimethoxy-6,7-3',4'-dimethylenedioxyflavone, 7-(3-methylbut-2-enyloxy)-3,5,8-trimethoxy-3', 4'-methylenedioxyflavone (3), 7-hydroxy-3,5,8-trimethoxy-3', 4'methylenedioxyflavone. In addition, two new flavonoids were found whose structures were established on the basis of their spectral data as 7-hydroxy-3,5,6,8-tetramethoxy-3',4'-methylenedioxyflavone (1) and 7-(3-methylbut-2-enyloxy)-3,5,6,8-tetramethoxy-3', 4'-methylenedioxyflavone (2).
RESUMEN
A preliminary screening showed the occurrence of alkaloids only in stem bark of Citrus macroptera Montr. In a first work on this Citrus [only one alkaloid was identified = edulinine]. We report in this paper the isolation of two other alkaloids: (+/-) Ribalinine and Isoplatydesmine and of five aromatic compounds: two derived from cinnamic acid, three identified as syringaldehyde, vanillin and methyl/vanillinate.

A preliminary screening showed the occurrence of alkaloids only in root bark and roots of ESENBECKIA PILOCARPOIDES H. B. K., (Rutaceae). Six alkaloids have been isolated and identified from root bark: one acridone, 1-hydroxy-3-methoxy- N-methyl-acridone; four furoquinolines, maculine, flindersiamine, kokusaginine, kokusagine; the sixth, isomaculine, a furo-4-quinolone, known as a synthetic product, has been isolated for the first time from a natural source.
