The methanol extract of Brazilian propolis was fractionated by HPLC, based on human hepatocellular carcinoma (HuH 13) cell cytotoxicity assay. A new benzo-γ-pyran derivative (PM-3) with a molecular formula of C19H22O3(MW: 298.38) was isolated. The structure of this colorless compound was determined as 3-[2-dimethyl-8-(3-methyl-2-butenyl) benzopy- ran]-6-propenoic acid. This compound was chemically synthesized by cyclisation of artepillin C (3-[4-hydroxy-3,5-bis (3-methyl-2-butenyl) phenyl]-2-propenoic acid).
