Abstract

Seven new limonoids, namely, xylorumphiins E-J (1-2 and 4-7) and 2-hydroxyxylorumphiin F (3), along with three known derivatives (8-10), were isolated from the seeds of Xylocarpus rumphii. 2-Hydroxyxylorumphiin F (3) and xylorumphiin I (6) displayed moderate inhibitory activity against nitric oxide production from lipopolysaccharide-activated macrophages with IC50 values of 24.5 and 31.3 μM, respectively.
