Abstract

Two diterpenoids (hispanolone 1, ballonigrine 2) and six flavonoids (5-hydroxy-3,7,4'-trimethoxyflavone 3, retusin 4, 5-hydroxy-7,4'-dimethoxyflavone 5, pachypodol 6, 5-hydroxy-3,6,7,4'-tetramethoxyflavone 7, 5-hydroxy-7,3',4'-trimethoxyflavone 8) have been isolated from the aerial parts of Ballota inaequidens Hub.-Mor. & Patzak. Among them, 7 has not been reported previously in the genus Ballota. The antibacterial and antifungal activities of 1-4, 6, and 8 were tested against Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Candida albicans, and Candida crusei.
