Clusia criuva belongs to the Clusiaceae family and it is endemic to the rupestrian fields in Chapada Diamantina National Park (Brazil). Phytochemical investigation of C. criuva trunks led to the isolation of five triterpenoids [winchic acid (1), betulinic acid (2), lupeol (3), friedelin (4), and friedelinol (5)], four steroids [lanosterol (6), stigmasterol (7), β-sitosterol (8), and sitostenone (9)], seven polyprenylated benzophenone derivatives [propolone A (10), propolone B (11), propolone C (12), propolone D (13), sampsonione B (14), hyperisampsin E (15), and hyperisampsin F (16)], four xanthones [neriifolone C (17), 6-deoxyisojacareubin (18), osajaxanthone F (19), and brasilixanthone B (20)], two biphenyls [aucuparina (21) and 2,2-dimethyl-5-hydroxy-7-phenylchromene (22)], and two tocotrienol derivatives [2Z- and 2E-δ-tocotrienoloic acids (23 and 24)]. Compounds 1, 11, 12, 15, and 16 were isolated for the first time in the Clusiaceae family, compounds 17, 19 and 21 were isolated for the first time in the genus Clusia, whereas 2–10, 13, 14, 18, 20, 22–24 were isolated for the first time in Clusia criuva. Compounds 1, 2, 11, 12, 13 and 15 showed potent in vitro cytotoxic activity against GL-15 glioblastoma-derived human cell line. Chemophenetics significance of these compounds is described herein.
