ABSTRACT
A phytochemical study of the methanol extract of the fruit of Maesa lanceolata resulted in the isolation of a new alkenylbenzoquinone (1), alongside the known compounds (Z)-2,5-dihydroxy-6-methyl-3-(pentadec-10'-enyl)-1,4-benzoquinone (2), 2,5-dihydroxy-6-methyl-3-(nonadec-14'-enyl)-1,4-benzoquinone (3), 2,5-dihydroxy-6-methyl-3-(tridecyl)-1,4-benzoquinone (4), (2S,3S,4R,2'R,9E)-[2'-hydroxytetraeicosanoyl]-2-aminooctadec-9-ene-1,3,4-triol (5), monopalmitin (glyceryl palmitate) (6), lupeol (7), and 3-O-(ß-D-glucopyranoside)-ß-sitosterol (8). The structures of the compounds were established by the means of spectroscopic (1 D- and 2 D-NMR) and spectrometric techniques (MS). The isolated compounds were assessed for their antibacterial, cytotoxic, and antiradical activities. Compound 2 showed moderate activity against Staphylococcus warneri (DSMZ 20036), while the other compounds were inactive. The two quinones 1 and 2 were significantly cytotoxic, with IC50 values of 0.005 µM and 12.5 µM respectively, and were weakly active towards DPPH radical (IC50 >250 µg/mL).
