Abstract
Two novel ent-kaurane diterpenoids, taihangjaponicain A (1), and taihangjaponicain B ( 2), and nine known diterpenoids, epinodosin (3), oridonin (4), epinodosinol (5), lasiokaurin ( 6), 1alpha- O-beta- D-glucopyranosylenmenol (7), lasiodonin (8), rabdosichuanin D ( 9), shikokianin (10) and rabdoternin A (11) were isolated from I. japonica leaves. The structures of the two new compounds were elucidated using 1-D and 2-D NMR spectroscopy. Compounds 1 and 3 - 11 were tested against HL-60, HO-8910 and A-549 human tumor cells. Compounds 4, 6 and 10 showed significant cytotoxicity against HL-60 cells with IC (50) values of 4.6, 2.0 and 3.4 microM, respectively, and against A-549 cells with IC (50) values of 17.5, 11.4 and 18.8 microM, respectively. Compound 6 exhibited moderate cytotoxicity against HO-8910 cells with an IC (50) value of 17.9 microM.
