Abstract
Abstract A novel 3-geranyl-4-hydroxybenzoic acid derivative, methyl xerophytolate (1), was isolated from the crude extract of Xerophyta plicata (Velloziaceae) collected in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. the structure of 1 was elucidated using spectroscopic methods. This is the first time that this type of skeleton is reported in this family.
