Chemical Constituents of Garcinia Mangostana, G. Parvifolla, G. Griffitti and G. Diversifolia (Guttiferae) and Their Biological Activities

Four plants from the Garcinia genus were subjected to chemotaxonomic investigations with the isolation of a number of compounds. The structures of the compounds were established by spectroscopic methods such as MS, UV, IR, 1HNMR and 13C-NMR and by comparison with previous studies. The investigat...
