Abstract
Abstract A simple, inexpensive high yield method for preparation of echinatin and licochalcone C is described. Echinatin inhibits the growth of Leishmania parasites in concentrations, in which the proliferation of lymphocytes is only slightly affected, indicating that the compound might be used for treatment of leishmaniasis.
