Abstract
⺠Henna is a well-known herb used for centuries for hair care and healing. ⺠Henna is prescribed for skin diseases due to its anti-inflammatory activity. ⺠Three 1,5-diphenylpent-3-en-1-ynes and three methyl naphthalene carboxylates were isolated from henna. ⺠Two of the isolated compounds exhibited potent anti-inflammatory activity.
