RESUMO
Six alkaloids peharmalines F-K, along with 14 known ones, were isolated from the aerial part of Peganum harmala L.. The structures of the isolated compounds were determined based on their HR-ESI-MS data, extensive NMR spectroscopic analyses, and ECD calculations. 3-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)quinoline exhibited potent antiproliferative activity against the HepG-2 cell lines with an IC50 value of 3.05 µM. Norharmane displayed a moderate inhibition against A549 and HepG-2 cells with IC50 values of 16.45 µM and 17.27 µM, respectively.

Inspired by the intriguing structures and bioactivities of polyprenylated xanthones, ten previously undescribed polyprenylated xanthones, nujiangxanthones G-P (1-10), and fifteen known ones (11-25) were isolated from the twigs and leaves of Garcinia nujiangensis. The structures of these compounds were established on the basis of spectroscopic data as well as comparison with the literature. Most of the isolates showed potent cytotoxicity against selected cancer cells. Compound 8 showed the highest effects against MDA-MB-231 and A549 cell lines with IC50 values of 4.12 and 2.67⯵M and 16 demonstrated the most potent activity against MCF-7 cell line with an IC50 value of 3.36⯵M.
