Chemical Investigation and Antimicrobial Activity of Medicinal Plant Toddalia asiatica Lam

Medicinal plants have become important sources of natural products, which have been used in the development of therapeutic agents. Four new coumarins (1-4) have been isolated together with five known metabolites (5-9) from the medicinal plant T. asiatica. The structures of 1-9 were assigned based on their spectroscopic data. Compounds (1-9) inhibited the growth of the Gram-negative bacteria E. coli and Gram-positive bacteria S. aureus at a concentration of 25 and 50 μg/disc. Compounds (2-4) inhibited the phytopathogenic fungus C. cucurbitarum at 50 μg/disc.
