Ent-kauranoids from Isodon rubescens var. taihangensis

J Asian Nat Prod Res. 2005 Feb;7(1):31-6. doi: 10.1080/10286020310001608985.

Abstract

Two new compounds, rubescensins Q and R (1 and 2), and a new acetonide derivative (3) of lasiodonin, together with thirteen known analogues, oridonin (4), ponicidin (5), wikstroemioidin B (6), lasiodonin (7), lasiokaurin (8), enmenol (9), 1-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-enmenol (10), trichokaurin (11), the acetonide of maoyecrystal F (12), rabdoternins A-D (13-16), have been isolated from Isodon rubescens var. taihangensis. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic methods, especially the 2D NMR spectral analysis. Compound 3 exhibited cytotoxicity against K562, Bcap37, CA, CNE, BIU87, BGC823, and HeLa cell lines.
