Abstract
Chemical investigation of Santolina insularis afforded eleven germacrane sesquiterpenes (1-11), four of which (2, 3, 10, and 11) are new. The stereostructures of these compounds have been established by a combination of spectroscopic techniques (mainly NMR), chemical transformations and application of the modified Mosher method. Compounds 8 and 10 showed a potent and selective cytotoxic activity against the human colon carcinoma cell line.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
