Abstract: | The rotenoids deguelin and tephrosin were isolated from leaves of Tephrosia vogelii, together with three flavonol glycosides, rutin, isoquercitrin and quercetin 3-O-arabinoside. Although T. vogelii leaves are reportedly toxic to aquatic snails, deguelin and tephrosin were found to have no significant molluscicidal activity. |
