Abstract

Five xanthones named cowagarcinone A-E and six previously reported xanthones were isolated from the latex of Garcinia cowa Roxb. Their structures were determined on the basis of spectroscopic analysis. The crude latex and the isolated compounds were investigated for their radical scavenging activities.
