Garcinia xanthochymus (Guttiferae) commonly known as gamboge, is a perennial medicinal plant native to the north of Thailand and Myanmar. Gamboge is used in watercolors, as a yellow fabric dye and traditional medicine for treating diarrhea and dysentery, dispelling worms clearing away fire and removing food toxin. Phytochemical investigations on the methanol extract of the stem bark of Garcinia xanthochymus resulted in isolation of one biflavonoid compound (+)-morelloflavon. The structure of this compound was deduced on basis of spectroscopic data including 1H NMR, 13C NMR, HMQC and HMBC and comparison with the reported data. This compound has been reported from others species of Garcinia.

A diprenylated xanthone, 1,5-dihydroxy-3-methoxy-4,7-diprenylxanthone (1) had been isolated the first time from the dichloromethane extract of the stem bark of Garcinia griffithii, together with 1,7-dihydroxyxanthone (2) and polyisoprenylated benzophenone, guttiferone I (3). The structure of these compounds were determined on the basis of spectroscopic data including UV, IR,  1H NMR, 13C NMR, HMQC, HMBC and COSY.   Keywords: diprenylated xanthone, 1,5-dihydroxy-3-methoxy-4,7-diprenylxanthone, Garcinia griffithii

Isolation and structure elucidation of two resveratrols dimer, namely balanocarpol (1) and heimiol A (2) from stem bark of Hopea mengarawan had been done. The isolation of those compounds was carried out by chromatographic method and structure elucidation was performed by interpretation of spectroscopic data, including UV, IR,  1H and 13C NMR 1D and 2D, and FABMS.   Keywords: Balanocarpol; Heimiol A; Dipterocarpaceae

Roots of Astragalus membranaceus called "huang qi" are included in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia and have been used in Chinese traditional medicine for hundreds of years. In China, it is mainly grown in the north and northeastern part. Under the conditions of the VILAR Botanical Garden, Astragalus membranaceus blooms in the first year of life, forming viable seeds in October. In the second year of life, it forms stems that are higher (by 50-70%) than in nature.

Euphorbia maculata is a medicinal plant of the Euphorbiaceae family, which can produce anti-inflammatory and cancer chemopreventive agents of triterpenoids. The present study reports on the bioactive triterpenoids of this plant. Two new lanostane-type triterpenoids, named (3S,4S,7S,9R)-4-methyl-3,7-dihydroxy-7(8→9) abeo-lanost-24(28)-en-8-one (1) and 24-hydroperoxylanost-7,25-dien-3β-ol (2), together with 15 known triterpene derivatives, were isolated from Euphorbia maculata. The structures of the new compounds were determined on the basis of extensive spectroscopic data (UV, MS, 1H and 13C-NMR, and 2D NMR) analysis. All tetracyclic triterpenoids (1–11) were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory effects in the test of TPA-induced inflammation (1 μg/ear) in mice. The triterpenes exhibited significant anti-inflammatory activities.

A brine shrimp toxic compound has been isolated from Mangifera foetida L. steam bark. Based on spectroscopic data (IR,1H- NMR, 13C-NMR 1D and 2D), the structure of this compound was identified as mangiferenes B, C30H47O2. In this study, the n-hexane, ethyl acetate, methanol extracts and isolated compound showed toxic effects (LC50 471.9543; 534.5209, 678.4421, and 22.1615 μg/mL, respectively). The toxicity degree among the three extracts and isolated compound is isolated compound > n-hexane extract > ethyl acetate extract > methanol extract.

A phenolic compoud, (-)-epicatechin, was isolated from  the stem bark of Garcinia bancana. The structure of this compound was determined base on spectroscopic  data such as including UV, IR, 1-D, 2-D NMR, and comparison with the reported data. Biological activity of this compound at free radical scavenging activity by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH) and inhibitory xanthine oxidase(XO) activity showed that (-)- epicathechin active at two methods with IC50 value 8.1 and 8.6 mg/mL respectively.   Keywords: phenolic, (-)-epicatechin, Garcinia  bancana, DPPH, XO

Two oligoresveratrol, namely balanocarpol (2) and ampelopsin H (3) had been isolated from the steam bark of Hopea odorata (Dipterocarpaceae). The structures of these compounds were elucidated based on physical and spectroscopic data (MS, 1H and 13C NMR 1D and 2D). The activity of these compounds was evaluated against the 2-deoxyribose degradation induced by the hydroxyl radical generated via a Fenton-type reaction. The result showed that activity each compounds as radical hydroxyl scavenger of balanocarpol, and ampelopsin H with an IC50 1802.3 and 4840.0 μg/mL, respectively. Each compound showed low activity. Vitamin C (IC50 83.9 μg/mL) and butylated hydroxyl toluene (1328.0 μg/mL) were used as positif controls. These results suggest that oligoresveratrols from stem bark of H. odorata may be useful as potential sources of natural antioxidants.   Keywords: balanocarpol, ampelopsin H, antioxidant, Dipterocarpaceae
