Abstract
Plants belonging to the Chisocheton genus are a rich source of tetracylic triterpenoids with diverse biological activities. Two triterpenoid compounds, dammar-20,24-dien-3-one ( 1 ) and 3β-hydroxy-tirucall-7-en ( 2 ) were isolated from the stembark of Chisocheton celebicus . The chemical structures of compounds 1 and 2 were identified by spectroscopic data, including IR, NMR ( 1 H, 13 C, DEPT 135 ° , HMQC, HMBC, 1 H- 1 H COSY), and MS, and they were compared with previously reported spectral data. Compounds 1 and 2 were evaluated for their cytotoxic effects against P-388 murine leukemia cells. The compounds showed cytotoxicity against P-388 murine leukemia cells, with IC 50 values of 30.2 and 4.3 µg/mL, respectively.
