Abstract
⺠Alkenylphenol gibbilimbol B was isolated from Piper malacophyllum. ⺠Gibbilimbol B was evaluated in vitro against Leishmania spp. and Trypanosoma cruzi. ⺠L. (L.) infantum chagasi and T. trypomastigotes were susceptible to gibbilimbol B. ⺠The alkenylphenol suggested the disruption of the Leishmania plasma membrane at initial incubation time.
