TL;DR: Methylenedioxyphenyl derivatives and the compounds structurally related to piperonyl butoxide, which has been found to be a potent protectant against ozone injury to plants, were tested for effectiveness against the same injury to tobacco leaves as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: Methylenedioxyphenyl derivatives and the compounds structurally related to piperonyl butoxide, which has been found to be a potent protectant against ozone injury to plants, were tested for effectiveness against the same injury to tobacco leaves. Five of 90 materials tested, namely 3,4-methylenedioxyphthaldehyde, benzimidazole, safroxane, xanthone and piperonal, showed high protective activity though the effectiveness was inferior to piperonyl butoxide. The protective mechanism was discussed.

TL;DR: Three pairs of C-2 epimeric xanthones isolated from Garcinia hanburyi and method for efficiently separating the xanthone compounds into individual epimers, each of which possesses varying biological effects as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: Three pairs of C-2 epimeric xanthones isolated from Garcinia hanburyi and method for efficiently separating the xanthone compounds into individual epimers, each of which possesses varying biological effects. The compounds are useful for their anticancer effects, particularly because they are shown to be non-substrates of the multidrug-resistance transporter. Some of the epimers have significant inhibitory effects on cytochrome P450 systems. The xanthone compounds of the present invention are gambogic acid, epigambogic acid, isogambogic acid, isoepigambogic acid, 30-hydroxygambogic acid and 30-hydroxyepigambogic acid.
