Abstract

Two new gedunins, an andirobin, two mexicanolides, and a phragmalin-type limonoid, named Andirolides Q (1), R (2), S (3), T (4), U (5), and V (6), were isolated from an oil of the flower of Carapa guianensis AUBLET (Meliaceae). Their structures have been elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analyses using 1D and 2D NMR spectra and FABMS. Andirolide S (3) and Andirolide T (4) showed significant cytotoxic activity against the murine P388 leukemia cell line (IC50 of 1.4μM for 3; 1.8μM for 4) and the human HL-60 leukemia cell line (IC50 of 1.3μM for 3 and 4).
