The objectives of this study are to isolate chemical compounds from the plant, to elucidate the structure of the isolated compounds, to propose plausible biogenetic pathway of the new compound and to discuss the biosynthetic pathway of the isolated flavonoids, and to evaluate DPPH radical scavenging activity of crude extracts and purified flavonoids.

Malayhypoleucin A (new compound-HS1) and scopoletin (HS2) were purified from the stem barks of M. hypoleuca, while five flavanones, known as 5,4’-dihydroxy-7-methoxyflavanone (HL1), 7-O-methyleriodictyol (HL2), 8- prenylnaringenin (HL3), 6-(3-hydroxy-3-methyl)naringenin (HL4), and tomentosanol D (HL5), two flavonols, quercetin (HL6) and kaempferol (HL7), and one phenolic compound known as 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (HL8) were isolated from the leaves of M. hypoleuca.
