Abstract

Three new 2-arylbenzofurans named wittifuran H, wittifuran I and wittifuran U (1–3) were obtained during our ongoing investigation of an ethanol extract from the stem bark of Morus wittiorum. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data. Compound 2 displayed potent anti-inflammatory activity and selective cytotoxicity against human gastric cancer cell line BGC-823 with an IC50 value of 1.45 μM.
