Description:
Two new amides, claulansamides A and B ( 1 and 2 , resp.), together with five known amides, 3 – 7 and six known quinolones, 8 – 13 , were isolated from the stems and roots of Clausena lansium. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of extensive spectroscopic methods. Their absolute configurations were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction technique, CD, and optical rotation. HPLC Chiral separation of 1 afforded two enantiomers, (+)- and (−)-claulansamide A, respectively. Compounds 9, 12 , and 13 were isolated from the genus Clausena for the first time. All compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxic activities against A549, BGC-823, and HeLa cancer cell lines. However, only 9 showed cytotoxic activity against A549 cell line with an IC 50 value of 46.3 μ M , and 11 against BGC-823 and HeLa cell lines with the IC 50 values of 55.0 and 14.7 μ M , respectively.
