Phytochemical investigation of the figs of Ficus mucuso led to the isolation of three new isoflavone dimer derivatives, mucusisoflavones A-C (1-3), together with 16 known compounds. Some of the isolates were tested in vitro for their inhibitory properties toward β-glucuronidase and Plasmodium falciparum enoyl-ACP reductase (PfENR) enzymes. Compound 1 (IC₅₀) 0.68 μM) showed inhibitory activity on β-glucuronidase enzyme, while 3 (IC₅₀) 7.69 μM) exhibited a weak inhibitory activity against P. falciparum enoyl-ACP reductase (PfENR).
