The bioassay- guided fractionation of the aqueous extract of Terminalia triflora leaves afforded punicalin and 2-O-galloylpunicalin, isolated for the first time from this species. These compounds showed inhibitory activity on HIV-1 reverse transcriptase in a dose-dependent manner. Punicalin showed an
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) react with biological molecules and destroy the structure of cells and eventually cause free radical-induced disease such as inflammation and cancer. Previous studies showed that an aqueus extract of Terminalia catappa L. exhibited superoxide radical scavenger
