Abstract
Three new protolimonoids, entandrophins A-C (1–3), together with two known compounds, methyl angolensate (4) and stigmas-4-en-3-one (5), were isolated from the bark of Entandrophragma angolense. Their structures were elucidated based on spectroscopic analyses, mainly 1D and 2D NMR spectral data. The compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against HepG2 cells and α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. Compounds 1–4 displayed very weak activity against HepG2 cells but compounds 2 and 3 exhibited significant α-glucosidase inhibition with IC50 values of 57.5 ± 1.5 and 32.5 ± 0.9 μM, respectively.

Fitoterapia is a Journal dedicated to medicinal plants and to bioactive natural products of plant origin. It publishes original contributions in seven major areas:
1. Characterization of active ingredients of medicinal plants
2. Development of standardization method for bioactive plant extracts and natural products
3. Identification of bioactivity in plant extracts
4. Identification of targets and mechanism of activity of plant extracts
5. Production and genomic characterization of medicinal plants biomass
6. Chemistry and biochemistry of bioactive natural products of plant origin
7. Critical reviews of the historical, clinical and legal status of medicinal plants, and accounts on topical issues.
