Abstract
Two new diterpenoids, crotonkinensins A (1) and B (2), were isolated from the leaves of the Vietnamese endemic medicinal plant Croton tonkinensis. Their structures were determined to be 7alpha,10alpha-epoxy-14beta-hydroxygrayanane-1(5),16(17)-dien-2,15-dione (1) and 7alpha,10alpha-epoxy-14beta-hydroxygrayanane-1(2),16(17)-dien-15-one (2) by spectroscopic analysis. Compounds 1 and 2 showed strong anti-inflammatory effects on the LPS-induced COX-2 promoter activity and COX-2 expression in Raw 264.7 cells.
