HIV-Inhibitory and Cytotoxic Oligostilbenes from the Leaves of <i>Hopea malibato</i>

Abstract

Three new oligostilbenes, malibatols A (1) and B (2) and dibalanocarpol (3), together with one known oligostilbene balanocarpol (4), were isolated from the organic extract of the leaves of Hopea malibato. The structure elucidation of these compounds was based on the interpretation of their chemical and spectral data. Compounds 3 and 4 exhibited very modest HIV-inhibitory activity, while compounds 1 and 2 were cytotoxic to the host cells (CEM SS) in the antiviral assay.
