Sucutiniranes C−F, Cassane-Type Diterpenes from <i>Bowdichia nitida</i>

Abstract

Four new cassane-type diterpenes, sucutiniranes C-F (3-6), have been isolated from seeds of Bowdichia nitida, and their structures were elucidated by using 2D NMR data, chemical correlations, and X-ray analysis. Sucutiniranes E (5) and F (6) were moderately cytotoxic against human blood premyelocytic leukemia (HL-60), breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7), and colon cancer (HCT-116) cells.
