ABSTRACT
Two xanthones and 4-phenylcoumarins were isolated from the twigs of Mesua beccariana (Baill.) Kosterm. Among them, one new xanthone, beccarianin A (1), along with 7-isoprenyl-jacareubin (2), mammea A/ AA cyclo F (3), and mammea A/BA cyclo F (4). These structures were determined by spectrometric and spectroscopic methods, HRESIMS data, NMR, and UV spectra. Two xanthones (1-2) and two 4-phenylcoumarins (3-4) were evaluated for their cytotoxic effect on the HeLa cells. Compound 1 showed active activity (IC50 = 8.2 µM), and compounds 3-4 showed moderate activity (IC50 = 12.3 and 15.6 µM, respectively).
ABSTRACT
Three isoprenylated flavanones were isolated from the leaves of Flemingia lineata (L.) Aiton. Among them are two new flavanones, flemilineatins A and B (1 - 2), along with 6-isoprenyl eridioctyol (3). Their structures were determined using HRESIMS data and NMR spectra. Flavanones 1 - 3 were assayed in the HeLa cancer cells. Compound 1 showed moderate activity with an IC 50 value of 11.2 µM.
ABSTRACT
Sesbagrandiflorain F (1), a novel 2-arylbenzofuran, and two more 2-arylbenzofurans (2-3), were isolated from the stem bark of Sesbania grandiflora L. Based on information HRESIMS data, 1D, and 2D NMR spectra, the structure of 1 was fully assigned. Compounds 1-3 were tested for cytotoxicity in MCF-7 and HeLacells. Compounds 1 and 3 showed moderate activity against MCF-7 cells with an IC50 value of 2.68 and 4.08 µg/mL,respectively. Conversely, all of the isolates were inactive towards HeLa cells.
ABSTRACT
One new compound, macasiamenene V (1), and two known stilbenes (2 - 3) were isolated from Macaranga inermis Pax & K.Hoffm leaves. The structure of 1 was fully assigned based on the information on high-resolution MS and (1D, 2D) NMR spectra. The cytotoxic of compounds 1 - 3 was evaluated against 4T1 and HeLa cells. Compounds 2 - 3 showed high activity against HeLa cells with an IC 50 value of 1.09 and 0.88 μg/mL, respectively.

ABSTRACT
A new cinnamyl acid derivative, willughbein A (1) along with pinoresinol (2), alyterinate A (3), and scopoletin (4), were isolated from the roots of Willughbeia coriacea Wall. The structure of 1 has been determined based on HRESIMS, 1D, and 2D NMR spectral data. All of the isolates were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against three human cancer cells (HeLa, T47D, MCF-
ABSTRACT
A new isoprenylated stilbene, flavestinK (1) together with two known isoprenylated stilbenes, flavestin B (2), flavestin G (3), and two isoprenilated flavanones, 4-O-methyl-8-isoprenylnaringenin (4) and 8-isoprenyl-5,7-dihydroxyflavanone (5) were isolated from the leaves of Macaranga recurvata Gage. All of the structures have been determined based on HRESIMS, 1D and 2D NMR spectral data. All of the isolated compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against three human cancer cells (HeLa, T47D and WiDr). Compound 1 showed higher activity than doxorubicin against HeLa cells with IC₅₀ value of 13.1 µg/mL.
