Xanthones from the stems of <i>Cratoxylum cochinchinense</i>

Abstract

Four new xanthones, 1-methoxy-3,7,8-trihydroxyxanthone (1), 1-methoxy-4,7,8-trihydroxyxanthone (2), 1-methoxy-4,7-dihydroxyxanthone (3), and 1,4-dimethoxy-2,7-dihydroxyxanthone (4) were isolated from the stems of Cratoxylum cochinchinense along with four known xanthones (5-8). The structures of new compounds were determined by extensive spectroscopic analyses, mainly 1D and 2D NMR and HRESIMS data.
