Abstract
One new neolignan (1) and one new phenolic compound (2), together with four known compounds (3–6) were isolated from the heartwood of Mansonia gagei. Their structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analyses, including 1D and 2D NMR and HRESIMS. The absolute configuration of 2 was established based on the DP4+ protocol and by comparison of experimental and calculated ECD spectra. All isolated compounds were evaluated by DPPH assay for antioxidant activity, while compounds 3–6 were assayed using the MTT-based colorimetric assay for cytotoxicity against lung cancer cell line A549. In terms of antioxidant activity, 1 and 3 exhibited stronger activity (IC50 14.91 ± 1.10 and 17.46 ± 0.16 μM, respectively) than the positive control, ascorbic acid (IC50 30.20 ± 0.47 μM). Among the compounds tested for cytotoxicity, compound 3 showed the highest activity, with an IC50 value of 26.04 ± 2.95 µM.
