Abstract:
Oxyresveratrol, a derivative compound of stilbene, has
successfully been isolated from the root wood of Artocarpus
dadah which is grown in Lampung Province, Indonesia. The
structure of this compound was identified and determined based
on the physical properties and spectroscopy techniques. The
compound isolated was found to have high cytotoxicity against
leukemia P-388 cancer cell and has high bioactivity against
Bacillus subtillis, Escherichia coli, Rhizopus oligosporus, and
Fusarium oxysporum.
Key words: A. dadah, oxyresveratrol, bioactivity, leukemia P-388
