Abstract

Six chromene stilbenoids and one chromane stilbenoid were isolated from the African tree Hymenocardia acida. Several were moderately active against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus clinical isolate MRSA-108, including hymenocardichromanic acid, which was active at 8 μg/ml. None had IC50 values <20 μM in antiproliferation assays against several human cancer cell lines.<br /> (Copyright © 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.)
