Abstract:
One new chalcone-flavone biflavonoid, 3'-hydroxydaphnodorin A (1), together with 12 known biflavonoids (2-13), was isolated from the rhizome of Wikstroemia indica. Their structures were established on the basis of extensive spectroscopic methods. Eight isolated compounds 1-3, 6, 7, 9, 12 and 13 were evaluated for their cytotoxic activities against cancer-derived cell lines Hep3B, HepG2 and CNE2, and 1 was found to possess moderate cytotoxicity against HepG2 and CNE2 cell lines, with IC50 values of 65.5 ± 11.4 and 53.6 ± 10.1 μM, respectively.
