Abstract

Chemical investigation of the fruits of Garcinia schomburgkiana collected in Vietnam led to the isolation of eight new schomburgkianones, A-H (1-8), four known (9-12) polyprenylated benzoylphloroglucinols, and four known biflavonoids. The structures of these compounds were elucidated by spectroscopic and chemical means. The absolute configuration at C-40 of 1 and 2 was determined by (1)H NMR analyses of their MPA esters. The configuration of the bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane core of the polyprenylated benzoylphloroglucinols was assigned by comparison of their experimental ECD spectra with those of related compounds. The polyprenylated benzoylphloroglucinols exhibited inhibitory activities against mammalian DNA polymerases α and λ, with IC50 values ranging from 5.0 to 8.8 μM. Compounds 1, 2, 4, 5, and 9-11 showed cytotoxic effects against HeLa human cervical cancer cells with median lethal dose values lower than 10 μM.
