Abstract
Reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) fractionation, monitored by liquid chromatography/electrospray mass spectrometry (LC/ESI-MS), led to the isolation of two new bioactive annonaceous acetogenins, rollidecin C (1) and rollidecin D (2), from the bioactive aqueous methanol fraction of the leaves of Rollinia mucosa (Annonaceae). The structures were confirmed by analyses of the 1H and 13C NMR data. In addition, a known adjacent bis-tetrahydrofuran (THF) acetogenin, desacetyluvaricin (3), was isolated from this plant for the first time utilizing the LC/ESI-MS monitoring approach. Compound 1 exhibited selective cytotoxicity toward the colon tumor cell line (HT-29), while 2 showed only borderline cytotoxicity in a panel of six human tumor cell lines.
