Eurycoma longifolia (Simaroubaceae) is a small tree to 15 m high.
One of the most unique uses for E. longifolia is that of the Sakai ethnic group in Sumatra who use the plant as an amulet to protect people from the smallpox virus.
The active constituents in E. longifolia, and many other species in the Family Simaroubaceae, include quassin, neo-quassin, glaukarubin, sedrin, eurycomanol that are mostly derivatives from compounds with 20 carbon atoms.

Note that in the past Bretschneidera and Akania have been associated with Sapindales, Bretschneidera in particular looking very like a member of Sapindaceae, and morphological phylogenetic analyses may continue to suggest this position; they are to be included in Brassicales, q.v., (Ronse de Craene and Haston 2006).
Kirkiaceae were previously placed in Simaroubaceae, but they lack quassinoids and limonoids.
Simaroubaceae have been very difficult to delimit, and molecular data suggest the excision of Suriana and its relatives (Surianaceae - Fabales) and Picramnia and Alvaradoa (Picramniaceae - unplaced Rosid: Fernando et al.
