Abstract

Three new prenylated Xanthones, 1-3, along with ten known compounds, were isolated from the stem bark of Garcinia lancilimba. Their structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis, including 1D- and 2D-NMR spectra, as well as HR-MS experiments. Some of these compounds showed apoptotic effects or growth-inhibition effects against HeLa cells expressing a Caspase sensor protein.
