Abstract

A novel coumarin (1, mucodianin A), three new 2-arylbenzofurans (2—4, mucodianins B—D) along with four known ones were isolated from the vine stems of Mucuna birdwoodiana. Their structures were elucidated on basis of spectral analysis. This is the first report of 7-quinonylcoumarin (1) as stable form in natural products.
