Xylopia ochrantha (Mart.) is a endemic species from Brazil, occurring mainly in the Restinga Forest located along the Brazilian coast. The chemical and biological studies in this work are the first related to this species. In phytochemical study, the extraction of essential oils from leaves and fruits of this species was performed by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC-MS/GC-FID. In total, 36 compounds were identified, of which germacrene D, bicyclogermacrene, silvestrene (leaves), α-phellandrene, β-phellandrene and sabinene (fruits) were the main components. The phytosterols campesterol, stigmasterol and gamma-sitosterol, from the foliar hexane extract, besides the majority flavonoids quercitrin and luteolin-7-O-rutinoside, found in the foliar ethyl acetate extract, were identified through analysis on GC-MS and HPLC-DAD-MS. Analyzes made in TLC showed the presence of terpenes, alkaloids and coumarins, which are also representative substances of the species. Regarding the study of biological species, the antioxidant activity was held to six extracts and essential oil from the leaves of Xylopia ochrantha using the ORAC method, with values in the range between 0.42 ± 0.01 and 1.85 ± 0.03 mmolTE / g. The antimicrobial activity of essential oil and extracts of Xylopia ochrantha could be analyzed by plate dilution and broth microdilution methods. The essential oil and extracts of dichloromethane and ethyl acetate from leaves of Xylopia ochrantha showed activity against different strains of Staphylococcus aureus, and were also active against Enterococcus faecalis, Staphylococcus haemolyticcus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus capitis and Staphylococcus hominis. Dichloromethane extract showed a MIC of 128 mcg / mL against ORSA blood. In other analysis, active extracts showed MIC of 512 mcg / mL. Ethanol extract showed cytotoxic activity against tumor cells of the pituitary (AtT20), where was possible to observe a significant decrease in cell viability and proliferation within 24 hours
