The leaves of Khaya senegalensis yielded two new limonoids. These compounds were identified on the basis of spectroscopic analysis as methyl lct-acetoxy-3fl,6,8ct-trihydroxy-2ct-methoxy-2fl,1413-epoxy-[4.2.1 t°'3°.l ~'4]-tricyclomeliac-7-oate and methyl l~-acetoxy-6,8ct,14fl,30fl-tetrahydroxy-3-oxo [3.3.1 J0.2.1~,4]. tricyclomeliac-7-oate. Scopoletin, fl-quercitrin and rutin were also isolated.
