Abstract

Two new compounds including one apotirucallane protolimonoid, xylogranatriterpin A (1), and one glabretal protolimonoid, xylocarpusin A (2), along with three known related compounds were isolated from the twigs and leaves of the Chinese mangrove Xylocarpus granatum. The apotirucallane xylogranatriterpin A (1) bears an unprecedented 24-ketal carbon connecting ring E with an epoxide ring. The structures of new compounds were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis and by comparison of the spectroscopic data with those reported in the literatures. Plausible biosynthetic pathway to xylogranatriterpin A (1) was also proposed. None of them showed cytotoxic, neuroprotective, or protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) inhibitory activity.
