Abstract  New hexalobine type alkaloid, 5-(2", 3"-epoxy-3"-methylbutyl)-3-(3'-hydroxy-3'-methyl-1'-acetyloxy-but-2'-yl) indole(1) alongside the known hexalobines 3-(2', 3'-dihydroxy-3'-methylbutyl)-5-(3"-methylcrotonoyl) indole(2), 3, 5-hexalobine C(3) and 3, 5-hexalobine D(4) were isolated from fruits of Hexalobus monopetalus. Compounds 3 and 4 exhibited antifungal activity against Candida albicans.
Keywords Hexalobus monopetalus      Hexalobines      Indole alkaloids      Candida albicans
