Abstract

From a CH2 Cl2 -soluble fraction of the stem barks of Taxus wallichiana, one new abeo-icetexane-type diterpenoid, taxamairin I (1), was isolated. Its absolute configuration was elucidated based on spectroscopic interpretation and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculation of optical rotation. In addition, the plausible biosynthesis pathway for the formation of the new abeo-icetexane-type diterpenoid was proposed. Taxamairin I (1), at a concentration of 100 μM, did not show cytotoxicity against Hep3B human liver cancer cell lines.
