ent-Kaurene diterpenoids from Isodon oresbius

Phytochemistry. 2004 Apr;65(8):1173-7. doi: 10.1016/j.phytochem.2004.02.022.

Abstract

Three new ent-kaurene diterpenoids, oreskaurins A-C (1-3), together with ten known ent-kaurene diterpenoids, enmenin monoacetate (4), effusanin E (5), adenolin B (6), maoecrystal G (7), enmelol (8), trichokaurin (9), sodoponin (10), trichorabdal A (11), nodosin (12), enmein (13), and a flavonoid, vitexin (14), were isolated from Isodon oresbius. Their structures were determined by spectroscopic means. Compound 12 showed inhibitory activity toward K562 cells with IC(50)=1.43 microg/ml.
