J Asian Nat Prod Res. 2009;11(1):24-8. doi: 10.1080/10286020802410714.

Abstract

Two new polyoxygenated cyclohexenes, kweichowenols C and D, were isolated from the leaves of Uvaria kweichowensis, and their structures were established on the basis of their spectral data. The two new compounds showed some antitumor activity by the MTT assay.
