S. Sahpaz et al., DIEPOXYROLLIN AND DIEPOMURICANIN-B - 2 NEW DIEPOXYACETOGENINS FROM ROLLINIA-MEMBRANACEA SEEDS, Journal of natural products, 60(2), 1997, pp. 199-201
Diepoxyrollin (1) and diepomuricanin B (2), two new Annonaceous acetog
enins were isolated from the cytotoxic MeOH extract of the seeds of Co
lombian Rollinia membranacea. Five others known acetogenins were also
isolated, dieporeticanin 1, dieporeticanin 2, diepomuricanin A, rollin
one, and sylvaticin. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of
spectral data. Compounds 1 and 2 belong to the rare type of diepoxyace
togenins, which are probably precursors of the mono-tetrahydrofuran ac
etogenins.
