Abstract
Three new polyprenylated benzophenone derivatives (1–3) were identified in the hexane extract of Clusia burle-marxii trunks, through the isolation and structural elucidation of their methyl derivatives, along with two known polyprenylated benzophenone derivatives sampsonine N (4) and obdeltifolione C (5). Burlemarxiones A (1) and B (2) show an unprecedent tetracyclo[8.3.1.03,11.05,10]tetradecane core skeleton. These compounds are a pair of β-diketones in tautomeric equilibrium, whereas isonemorosonol (3) is the respective β-diketone pair in tautomeric equilibrium with nemorosonol. Burlemarxione A methyl derivative (1a) and sampsonine N exhibited strong in vitro cytotoxic activity against GL-15 glioblastoma-derived human cell line.
