Bioassay-guided fractionation of the acetone extract of the bark of Garcinia oblongifolia has resulted in the isolation of three new xanthones, oblongixanthones A−C (1−3), three new polyprenylated benzoylphloroglucinols, oblongifolins E−G (4−6), and 12 known compounds. Oblongifolins I (5) and J (6) are the first natural products that have similar structural features to those of two known oxidation products of garcinol. The structures of the new compounds 1−6 were characterized by spectroscopic data interpretation. All isolates were assayed for their apoptosis-inducing effects against HeLa-C3 cells. Oblongifolin C (16) was found to be the most potent apoptotic inducer of the compounds evaluated.
