Chemical Constituents of Hedyotis dichotoma and their Biological Activity

Two compounds, isovitexin and ursolic acid, were isolated from the aerial parts of Hedyotis dichotoma. Anti-microbial assays indicated that isovitexin was active against fungus and candida. The structures of both compounds were assigned using modern spectroscopic techniques.
