ABSTRACT

Two new guaianolides, named chinensiolides D (5) and E (6), were isolated from Ixeris chinensis Nakai, and their structures were determined to be 10alpha-hydroxy-3-oxoguaia-11(13)-eno-12,6alpha-lactone (5) and 10alpha-hydroxy-3beta-O-[2,6-di(p-hydroxyphenylacetyl)-beta-glucopylanosyl]guaia-4(15),11(13)-dieno-12,6alpha-lactone (6). The first isolation of (11S)-10alpha-hydroxy-3-oxoguaia-4-eno-12,6alpha-lactone (4) from natural sources and its characterization are also reported. Chinenciolide E (6) showed significant growth inhibitory activity toward VA-13 malignant lung tumor cells (IC50 = 0.72 microM).
