Two new prenylated acetophenone derivatives racemates, meliviticines A (1) and B (2) with unprecedented rearranged skeletons, were isolated from Melicope viticina. Subsequent chiral resolution led to the separation of two pairs of enantiomers, (+/-)-meliviticines A (1a/1b) and (+/-)-meliviticines B (2a/2b). Their structures including absolute configurations were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic data, electronic circular dichroism analysis, and X-ray crystallography. A plausible biosynthetic pathway of 1 and 2, involving ring cleavage and rearrangement of the prenylated acetophenone backbone was proposed. All the isolates showed moderate antimicrobial activities with MIC values of 25-50 mu g/mL against several bacterial and fungal strains.
