Three new2-(2-phenylethyl)chromone derivatives (1–3) and a new2-(2-phenylethenyl)chromone derivative (4), together with two known 2-(2-phenylethyl)chromone derivatives (5–6), were isolated from agarwood originating from Gyrinops salicifolia Ridl. The structures of compounds 1–4 were elucidated by comprehensive spectroscopic techniques (UV, IR, 1D and 2D-NMR) and MS analysis, as well as by comparison with the literature. Compounds 1, 2, and 5 showed moderate cytotoxicity against human tumor K562, BEL-7402, and SGC-7901 cell lines with IC50 values of 5.76 to 20.1 µM.
