Abstract
As part of a study on antitumor agents from rainforest plants, four new clerodane diterpenes, bucidarasins A--D (1-4), were isolated from Bucida buceras. Their structures were elucidated from detailed 2D NMR analyses. Compounds 1-3 showed potent cytotoxicity against human tumor cell lines with IC(50) values of 0.5-1.9 microM. The potency was retained in drug resistant lines.Entities:
