Lignanes from the Brazilian Melia azedarach, and their activity in Rhodnius prolixus (Hemiptera, Reduviidae).

A study of the phagoinhibitor and anti-moulting activities of the Brazilian Melia azedarach, collected in the State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, allowed the isolation of four lignanes identified as pinoresinol (1), bis-epi-pinoresinol (2), the hemicetal (3) and the diacid (4). These substances are devoid of anti-moulting activity.
