English term or phrase: Xanthones
John's Wart has 1 Xanthone and the Mangosteen fruit has at least 40 . The fruit has been independently researched for the past 40 years by Universities all over the world .

I have found dozens of translations for this word and would like to know whether there is an official translation and the reference where this can be found.

呫吨酮
Explanation:
Xanthone is an organic compound that has many isomers and derivatives.

John's Wart 含有一种呫吨酮,而Mangosteen fruit至少含有40种呫吨酮。

http://emeraldofsiam.com/xango.htm
Science has identified approximately 200 different Xanthones. The Mangosteen has an amazing 40 just by itself, including some of the most dynamic Xanthones yet studied. There are other herbs and plants, such as St. John's Wort, which might contain one or two Xanthones... but nothing compares with the quantity and vibrancy of Xanthones in Mangosteen.

Xanthone currently finds uses as ovicide for codling moth eggs and as a larvicide. It is also used in the preparation of xanthydrol, used in the determination of urea levels in the blood.

Xanthone - 呫吨酮 (英汉化学化工词汇)
Xanthone - 氧杂蒽酮 (英汉化学大词典)
Both are correct. There may be other Chinese names, but I strongly recommended these two.

呫吨酮 - popular name (俗名)
氧二苯甲酮 - not popular, could be misleading
氧杂蒽酮 - formal name, scientific name (学名)
山酮 - not popular
仙桐 - sounds like a tree (桐树). I don't think it's correct. The last character must be 酮, indicating it's a ketone.
口山酮 - not popular
黃圜酮 - It seems it's only used in Taiwan.

I strongly recommend you use 呫吨酮 or 氧杂蒽酮.

neutral  chica nueva: 呫吨酮 yes, I saw this one too on my search - but I was searching for xanthenone, not xanthone. -> this is just one of the many xanthenones?

  -> Thanks! Xanthenone = xanthone. Xanthones (plural) represent a family of 呫吨酮 derivatives.//呫吨酮 is a generic term.

I guess this is just one of the xanthenones/xanthones, and you need the generic term that covers them all?

'xanthone' may not be a strict technical term, rather a commercial/marketing term?
