Abstract

Inspired by the intriguing structures and bioactivities of polyprenylated xanthones, ten previously undescribed polyprenylated xanthones, nujiangxanthones G-P (1-10), and fifteen known ones (11-25) were isolated from the twigs and leaves of Garcinia nujiangensis. The structures of these compounds were established on the basis of spectroscopic data as well as comparison with the literature. Most of the isolates showed potent cytotoxicity against selected cancer cells. Compound 8 showed the highest effects against MDA-MB-231 and A549 cell lines with IC <subscript>50</subscript> values of 4.12 and 2.67 μM and 16 demonstrated the most potent activity against MCF-7 cell line with an IC <subscript>50</subscript> value of 3.36 μM.<br /> (Copyright © 2019 Elsevier Inc.
