ABSTRACT: In the current study, two new flavones, 4'-O-geranyltricin (1) and 3'-O-geranylpolloin (2), and a new 2-(2-phenylethyl)-4H-chromen-4-one derivative, 7-hydroxyl-6-methoxy-2-(2-phenylethyl)chromone (3), have been isolated from the stem barks of A. sinensis, together with 21 known compounds 4-24. The structures of new compounds 1-3 were determined through spectroscopic and MS analyses. Compounds 2, 3, 5, 6, and 8-10 exhibited inhibition (IC50≤12.51 μM) of superoxide anion generation by human neutrophils in response to formyl-L-methionyl-L-leucyl-L-phenylalanine/cytochalasin B (fMLP/CB). Compounds 3, 6, 8, 10, and 19 inhibited fMLP/CB-induced elastase release with IC50 values≤15.25 μM. This investigation reveals bioactive isolates (especially 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, and 19) could be further deve
