This study aimed to assess the biological activities of Tunisian Simmondsia chinensis and characterize its potential bioactive compounds. Different extracts of S. chinensis were tested for their antioxidant, antibacterial, anti-α-amylase, and anti-acetylcholinesterase activities through in vitro assays.

In this study, a novel fatty acid anhydride, named phalarisin 1, was successfully isolated from the ethyl acetate extract of growing in Tunisia. The structural characterisation of the compound was achieved through various spectroscopic techniques including FT-IR, 1D and 2D-NMR spectroscopy, as well as acidic hydrolysis analyses. Remarkably, phalarisin exhibited potent antimicrobial properties against a range of pathogens including , , , and , with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) ranging from 31.

The phytochemical investigation of Thymelaea tartonraira leaves led to the isolation and characterization of six compounds, including one new flavonoid glycoside identified as hypolaetin 8-O-β-D-galactopyranoside (4) along with five known compounds, daphnoretin (1), triumbelletin (2), genkwanin (3), tiliroside (5) and yuankanin (6). Their structures were established based on spectroscopic methods, such as UV, IR, NMR, and HR-ESI-MS. Triumbelletin (2) and tiliroside (5) were isolated for the first time from T.
