Abstract

Six new compounds, including three terpenoids (1-3) and three lignans (4-6), were isolated from the 95% EtOH extract of the twigs of Tripterygium hypoglaucum. Their structures were determined on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analysis. 9'-O-benzoyl-lariciresinol (4) showed weak cytotoxicity against HepG2/Adr cells, with an IC50 value of 30.1 μM in vitro.

Keywords: Celastraceae; Tripterygium hypoglaucum; cytotoxicity; lignan; terpenoid.
