Zusammenfassung:Investigation of an organic extract of the stems of Garcinia bracteata led to the isolation of two new flavones, named bracflavones A (1) and B (2). Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic evidence. The compounds feature an isopropoxy group at C-3 compared with related known flavonoids isolated from the genus Garcinia. Compounds 1 and 2 were tested for their cytotoxicity. The results revealed that compound 1 showed high cytotoxicity against A549 and PC3 cell lines, and compound 2 showed high cytotoxicity against NB4, A549, SH-SY5Y, PC3, and MCF7 cell lines.
