Abstract

The presence of potential algicides in Juncus effusus was studied. Sequential Et2O and MeOH exts. were made of dried plants that had been collected in spring and summer, and phenanthrenes were purified from the exts. All the free dihydrophenanthrenes and tetrahydropyrenes inhibited the test alga, Selenastrum capricornutum. One substance (I) inhibited several algae in eutrophic ecosystems with activity similar to that of CuSO4. Glycosylation severely inhibited algicidal activity of all compds. examd.
