Chemical investigation of the lichen Parmotrema tsavoense led to the isolation of 5 new depsidones, parmosidones F - J (1: - 5: ). These compounds were structurally elucidated using spectroscopic methods including HRESIMS and 2D NMR data. Compounds 1, 3: , and 4: were evaluated for their inhibition of α-glucosidase. All exhibited potent α-glucosidase inhibitory activity with IC50 values ranging from 10.7 to 17.6 µM, which was much lower than that of the positive control acarbose (IC50 449 µM).
