Abstract
Brevipsidone (1), a new depsidone was isolated from the methanol extract of the stem bark of Garcinia brevipedicellata together with known damnacanthal (2), pilloin (3), scopoletin (4). The structure of the new compound was determined by analysis of spectroscopic data. Compounds 1–4 were evaluated for their α-glucosidase inhibition effect and showed significant inhibitory activity.
