description

A phytochemical investigation of the roots of Aspilia pluriseta led to the isolation of ent-kaurane-type diterpenoids and additional phytochemicals (1&#8315;23). The structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated based on Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopic and mass spectrometric analyses. The absolute configurations of seven of the ent-kaurane-type diterpenoids (3&#8315;6, 6b, 7 and 8) were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. Eleven of the compounds were also isolated from the roots and the aerial parts of Aspilia mossambicensis. The literature NMR assignments for compounds 1 and 5 were revised. In a cytotoxicity assay, 12&#945;-methoxy-ent-kaur-9(11),16-dien-19-oic acid (1) (IC50 = 27.3 &#177; 1.9 &#181;M) and 9&#946;-hydroxy-15&#945;-angeloyloxy-ent-kaur-16-en-19-oic acid (3) (IC50 = 24.7 &#177; 2.8 &#181;M) were the most cytotoxic against the hepatocellular carcinoma (Hep-G2) cell line, while 15&#945;-angeloyloxy-16&#946;,17-epoxy-ent-kauran-19-oic acid (5) (IC50 = 30.7 &#177; 1.7 &#181;M) was the most cytotoxic against adenocarcinomic human alveolar basal epithelial (A549) cells.
