Cytotoxicity and Structure-Activity Relationships of Xanthone Derivatives from Mesua beccariana, Mesua ferrea and Mesua congestiflora towards Nine Human Cancer Cell Lines
The cytotoxic structure-activity relationships among a series of xanthone derivatives from Mesua beccariana, Mesua ferrea and Mesua congestiflora were studied. Eleven xanthone derivatives identified as mesuarianone (1), mesuasinone (2), mesuaferrin A (3), mesuaferrin B (4), mesuaferrin C (5), 6-deox...
