Abstract

The structures of the butenolides 1 and 2, isolated from the endemic plants Hortonia floribunda, H. angustifolia, and H. ovalifolia, collected in Sri Lanka, have been elucidated by spectroscopic analysis. These compounds exhibited potent mosquito larvicidal activity against the second instar larvae of Aedes aegypti.
