Biotransformation of dihydroresveratrol by crude Momordica charantia peroxidase provided six new acyclic bis[bibenzyls] 1 – 6 . Their structures were established on the basis of NMR and MS analyses as C C, C O C , and C CH 2 C dimers of dihydroresveratrol. Compounds 1 – 6 were tested for antiproliferative activity against human prostate cancer PC3 cell line in vitro , and 2 and 6 were found to be more potent than the parent compound.
