Abstract:
One new xanthone, (±) garciesculenxanthone C (1), two new biphenyls, garciesculenbiphenyls A (2) and B (3), together with two known compounds, doitungbiphenyl B (4) and morusignin D (5), were isolated from Garcinia esculenta. The structures of new compounds were elucidated by spectroscopic analysis, and the absolute configuration of (±) garciesculenxanthone C (1) was assigned by a modified Mosher's method. All isolates were evaluated for their antistaphylococcal activities against Staphylococcus aureus Newman, USA300 LAC, USA400 MW2, and Mu50 strains. Among these, (±) garciesculenxanthone C (1) showed the best antistaphylococcal activity, and its effect was determined to be bactericidal by time-kill experiment.
