The pure compounds from Goniothalamus rongklanus and Goniothalamus latestigma were isolated by repeated column chromatography. The structures were recognized by NMR spectral methods. The chemical compounds of ethyl acetate extract (EtOAc) from the stems of G. rongklanus as goniotriol (1) and stigmasterol glucoside (2). The EtOAc leaves extract of G. latestigma yielded a compound, which was 3). The ethyl acetate (EtOAc) and methanol (MeOH) extract were tested for anti-HIV-1 were identified RT and cytotoxic activities against P-388, KB, HT 29, MCF-7, A 549, ASK and CL cell lines. The EtOAc and MeOH extract of G. rongklanus showedidentified evidence as pinocembrin of anti-HIV-1 ( RT inhibition at 76.44 and 88.48 %, respectively. The EtOAc extract of G. rongklanus and G. latestigma showed cytotoxic activities on KB and HT 29 with an ED50 at <4 µg/mL. In addition, antibacterial study on extracts and isolated compounds was also performed. Antibacterial study was evaluated using nine strains (Staphylococcus aureus, Enterobacter aerogenes, Escherichia coli 0157: H7, Escherichia coli (ETEC), Escherichia coli (EPEC), Proteus mirabilis, Salmonella typhimuriam, Shigella flexneri and Vibrio cholera) by Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC) method. Goniotriol was the most effective antibacterial with a MIC in the range <0.16 - time. 0.6 mg/mL and MBC in the range 0.3 - >5 mg/mL. The antibacterial activity of goniotriol has been reported for the first Keywords: Antibacterial Activity, Anti-HIV-1 RT, Cytotoxicity, Goniothalamus rongklanus, Goniothalamus lagestima 1.

This genus has been 1 185 species, of which 25 species are found in Thailand . previously reported for styryl lactones, flavonoids, This genus is widely distributed in the tropical forests naphthoquinones, azaanthraquinones, alkaloids, of Southeast Asia and are used in traditional medicine. and acetogenins7 – 11. Compounds isolated from Root barks of G. cheliensis and seeds of G. amuyon are Goniothalamus genus has generally shown cytotoxicity, 2, 3 used in the treatment of edema and arthritis . The antimycobacterial, antimalarial, antiinflammatory, 4 stem bark of G. laoticus has been applied as roborant . antitumor, antiviral, anti-larvicidal, anti-biofilm and *Author for correspondence Article Received on: 29.05.2019 Accepted on: 16.08.2019 Nutthapol Funnimid et al. 147 antiplasmodial activity7, 9, 12, 13. Styryl lactone compounds Q mass spectrometer at 70 eV (probe) and EIMS were are the most isolated compounds from this genus for measured by a BrÜker Esquire apparatus. Infrared example, goniothalamin, goniotriol, cardiobutanolide, spectra (IR) were recorded at potassium bromide (KBr) goniofufurone, altholactone, goniopypyrone, goniodiol, solid with a Shimadzu 8900 FT-IR spectrophotometer and goniothalamin oxide. Goniothalamin has shown and major bands (λmax) were noted in wave number cytotoxicity in oral cavity, breast, small cell lung, and (cm-1). The Column Chromatography (CC) were used vero cell lines14. silica gel 60 H from E. Merck. 70-230 mesh ASTM, G. rongklanus is a member of this genus, locally cat.

Thin layer chromatography (TLC) technique is distributed in the Northern and North-Eastern was proceeded on silica gel 60 PF254 at aluminium Thailand. G. latestigma is locally known as ‘Sa-Lao- sheets and isolated compounds were described below Ton’ and distributed around Peninsular Thailand. These ultraviolet light. Melting points were defined by a Büchi species are small trees upto 8 m tall and slender, featured 322 micro melting point apparatus and records in degree by flowers with whorl of three sepals and two whorls of Celsius (˚C). three petals each, the inside petals are connivant and forming a distinctive dome over the stamens1. 2.3 Extraction and Isolation There are no reports related to isolation of 2.3.1 Isolation of Chemical Constituents from compounds from G. rongklanus and G. latestigma and G. rongklanus Extracts their bioactive evaluation. Hence, the study was planned The air-dried milled stems of G. rongklanus (1.772 to extract, isolate, characterize the compounds from G. kg) was extracted with EtOAc (6 × 5 L) (ethyl acetate) rongklanus and G. latestigma and to evaluate them for and MeOH (6 × 5 L) (methanol) at room temperature Anti-HIV-1 RT (Reverse Transcriptase), cytotoxicity for three days to yield EtOAc extract (47.98 g) and and antibacterial activity. MeOH extract (103.86 g) after solvent removal by rotary evaporator. The EtOAc extract was isolated to pure compounds 2.
