New flavonoid and stilbene derivatives from the fruits of Macaranga balansae.

Two new prenylated flavonoids, 4´-methyl-8-prenyltaxifolin (1) and 6,8-diprenyl-4´-methyl-naringenin (2) and a new geranylated stilbene, 4'-deprenyl-4-methoxymappain (3) together with eight known flavonoids (4-11) were isolated from the fruits of Macaranga balansae Gagnep. Their chemical structures were determined by means of spectroscopic methods including 1D, 2D NMR, and MS data. Compound 2 showed the highest cytotoxic activity against PanC1, A549, KB and LU-1 cell lines with IC₅₀ values range from 7.89 to 22.81 µM.
