Abstract
The first study of chemical constituents of the stem bark of Calophyllum brasilienses collected in Brazil has led to the isolation and identification of seven new xanthones named brasixanthones A (1), B (4), C (5), D (6), E (2), F (3), and G (10), together with 10 known xanthones. Among the xanthones isolated in this study, 4, 5, 6, and 11 were found to exhibit significant inhibitory activity against 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate induced Epstein-Barr virus early antigen activation in Raji cells.
