K. Imamura et al., BRUCEANOL-G AND BRUCEANOL-H, CYTOTOXIC QUASSINOIDS FROM BRUCEA-ANTIDYSENTERICA, Journal of natural products, 58(12), 1995, pp. 1915-1919
Two new quassinoids, bruceanols G [1] and H [4], were isolated from Br
ucea antidysenterica, and their structures were elucidated by spectral
evidence and chemical transformation. Bruceanol G exhibited significa
nt cytotoxicity against the COLO-205 and KB neoplastic cell lines with
ED(50) values of 0.44 and 0.55 mu M, respectively.
