Abstract


Two new compounds, 7-methoxycoumarin (I) and 7-hydroxyartemidin (II) were isolated from the ethanol/water (50:50, V/V) extract of Artemisia drucunculus L. leaves. Structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated on the basis of spectral data ('H NMR and MS). It is shown that compound I is devoid of anticoagulation activity in male Albino rabbits in contrast to the same activity observed in rabbits using the crude extract of the leaves.
