Abstract
The two antimicrobial resorcinols malabaricone B [1] and malabaricone C [2] were isolated from mace, the dried seed covers of Myristica fragrans. Both compounds exhibited strong Antifungal and Antibacterial activities. Structure modifications by methylation or reduction resulted in diminished activity.
