Abstract

Two new cembranoids, together with fifteen known ones, were isolated from the flowers of Nicotiana tabacum L. The structures of the new compounds were established as (1βH,2E,4αOH,6αOH,7E,10αH,11αH,12βOH)-10,11-epoxy-2,7-cembradiene-4,6,12-triol (1) and (1βH,2E,4αOH,6αOH,7E,10βH,11βH,12αOH)-10,11-epoxy-2,7-cembradiene-4,6, 12-triol (2) by using spectroscopic analysis, including HRESIMS, IR, one- and two-dimensional NMR. A plausible biogenetic relationship of the isolated cembranoids was proposed. The antitumor activities of selected compounds against a panel of three human cancer HepG2, A549 and HCT-116 cell lines were evaluated by the MTT assay. Compound 5 exhibited moderate activity against Hep-G2 cell lines with an IC50 value of 14.38μM.
