Bioassay‐guided fractionation of the stems of Spatholobus suberectus led to the isolation of procyanidin B4 (=(+)‐catechin‐(4→8)‐(−)‐epicatechin) ( 1 ) and (+)‐catechin‐(4→8)‐(+)‐catechin‐(4→8)‐(−)‐epicatechin ( 2 ). These compounds, isolated before from other sources, were found to be highly potent inhibitors of DNA‐topoisomerase‐II (Topo‐II)‐mediated KDNA decatenation, with IC 50 values of 22.5±2.3 and 21.9±2.2 n M , resp.
