Popis: | The furanoditerpenoids voucapane, voucapane-6alpha,7alpha-diol, voucapane-18,19-diol and 18-hydroxyvoucapan-19-al were isolated from the cytotoxic stem and root bark extracts of Stuhlmaniamoavi Verdc. (Ceasalpiniaceae) and their structures established based on analysis of spectroscopic data. The compounds exhibited anti-proliferative, cytotoxic, antibacterial and antifungal activities, 18-hydroxyvoucapan-19-al showing the highest anti-proliferative and cytotoxic properties. Voucapane-18,19-diol was only mildly active but the activity was enhanced for its 18,19-di-(4-methyl)-benzenesulphonate. Some of these results thus corroborate the traditional medicinal uses of the crude extracts for the treatment of skin infections. |
