Description

Ipomeamarone is a natural product isolated from the roots of the sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas). It is a sesquiterpene with a unique structure and possesses a range of biological activities. It is known to exhibit potent cytotoxic effects against various cancer cell lines. Ipomeamarone inhibits the growth of cancer cells through multiple mechanisms, including induction of apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, and inhibition of angiogenesis. Its potent anti-cancer activity has led to significant research interest in exploring its potential as a therapeutic agent. The compound's biosynthetic pathway involves the formation of a cyclohexenone ring system followed by the attachment of a furan ring. Research has shown that ipomeamarone can be synthesized through various chemical methods, including biotransformation and enzymatic reactions.'
