From a methanolic extract of the aril of Myristica fragrans HOUTT. (mace), the following new threo and erythro acyclic bis-phenylpropanoids were isolated : threo-2- (4-allyl-2, 6-dimethoxyphenoxy) -1- (4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl) propan-1-ol (1a), erythro-2- (4-allyl-2, 6-dimethoxyphenoxy) -1- (4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl) -1-methoxypropane (2b), erythro-2- (4-allyl-2, 6-dimethoxyphenoxy) -1- (4-hydroxy-3, 5-dimethoxyphenyl) propan-1-ol (3b), 2- (4-allyl-2, 6-dimethoxyphenoxy) -1- (4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl) propane (4), erythro-2- (4-allyl-2-methoxyphenoxy) -1- (4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl) propan-1-ol (5b), threo-1- (4-hydroxy-3, 5-dimethoxyphenyl) -2- [2-methoxy-4- (1 (E) -propenyl) phenoxy] propan-1-ol (6a) and erythro-2- (4-allyl-2, 6-dimethoxyphenoxy) -1- (3-hydroxy-4, 5-dimethoxyphenyl) propan-1-ol (7b). Contrary to a previous finding that Myristica species contain only an erythro type of acyclic bis-phenylpropanoids, we isolated both threo and erythro derivatives.
