They included 8 phenyl benzoates, 10 benzophenones, and 2 xanthones. Phenyl benzoate compounds 1–8 did not exhibit evident antitumor activity, which was consistent with existing theories. Compounds 16, 17, and 18 exhibited moderate anti-tyrosinase activity. In addition, compounds 11 and 18 exhibited moderate inhibitory activity against Candida albicans, and compound 20 exhibited stronger anti-α-glycosidase activity than quercetin, with an IC_(50)of approximately 2.45 μM. These results demonstrated that compounds 11, 16–18, and 20 were promising leads for further structural modification.展开更多
