Previously, Lin et al. reported the isolation and structural determination of two triterpenoids, garcinielliptin oxide (GO) and garcinielliptone E (GE). Their unusual structural features, which remained unparalleled in subsequent decades despite the intervening discovery of hundreds of other polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols (PPAPs), caused us to question the originally assigned structures, so GO was reisolated from , and its NMR spectra were reacquired. In this Note, we revise the structures of GO and the related GE via NMR analysis, biosynthetic considerations, and chemical conversion. Garcinielliptone T, a new PPAP, was also isolated and characterized. GO exhibited weak inhibitory activity against acetylcholinesterase with an IC value of 20.7 μM.

Cytotoxicity and apoptosis-inducing properties of compounds isolated from leaves were investigated. The hexane-soluble portion of MeOH extracts of leaves that showed cytotoxic activity was separated to yield seven compounds -. Chemical structure analysis using NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry confirmed that compound was canophyllol, and compounds - were garcinielliptones N, O, J, G, F, and garcinielliptin oxide, respectively.

Four novel phloroglucinol derivatives, garcinielliptones A (1), B (2), C (3), D (4), a novel triterpenoid, garcinielliptone E (5), and three known compounds were isolated from the seeds of Garcinia subelliptica. The structures, including relative configurations, were elucidated by means of spectroscopic data. Known compounds garsubellin A (6) and garcinielliptin oxide (7) showed potent inhibitory effects on the release of beta-glucuronidase, and beta-glucuronidase and histamine, respectively, from peritoneal mast cells stimulated with compound 48/80 in a concentration-dependent manner with IC(50) values of 15.
