Alkenylbenzoquinones and other compounds from the fruit of exhibited potent cytotoxic, antibacterial, and antiradical scavenging activities.

A phytochemical study of the methanol extract of the fruit of resulted in the isolation of a new alkenylbenzoquinone (), alongside the known compounds ()-2,5-dihydroxy-6-methyl-3-(pentadec-10'-enyl)-1,4-benzoquinone (), 2,5-dihydroxy-6-methyl-3-(nonadec-14'-enyl)-1,4-benzoquinone (), 2,5-dihydroxy-6-methyl-3-(tridecyl)-1,4-benzoquinone (), (2,3,4,2',9E)-[2'-hydroxytetraeicosanoyl]-2-aminooctadec-9-ene-1,3,4-triol (), monopalmitin (glyceryl palmitate) (), lupeol (), and 3--(-D-glucopyranoside)--sitosterol (). The structures of the compounds were established by the means of spectroscopic (1 D- and 2 D-NMR) and spectrometric techniques (MS). The isolated compounds were assessed for their antibacterial, cytotoxic, and antiradical activities.
