Five new compounds-rhodimer ( 1 ), rhodiflavan A ( 2 ), rhodiflavan B ( 3 ), rhodiflavan C ( 4 ), and rhodacarpin ( 5 )-along with 16 known secondary metabolites, were isolated from the CH 2 Cl 2 -CH 3 OH (1:1) extract of the roots of Tephrosia rhodesica . They were identified by NMR spectroscopic, mass spectrometric, X-ray crystallographic, and ECD spectroscopic analyses. The crude extract and the isolated compounds 2 - 5 , 9 , 15 , and 21 showed activity (100% at 10 μg and IC 50 = 5-15 μM) against the chloroquine-sensitive (3D7) strain of Plasmodium falciparum .
