Terpenoid indole alkaloids from Winchia calophylla.
    Journal of natural products, 2006, Volume: 69, Issue:1

    Three new indole alkaloids, N(4)-demethyl-12-methoxyalstogustine (1), 17-carboxyl-N(4)-methylechitamidine chloride (2), and 17-carboxyl-12-methoxy-N(4)-methylechitamidine chloride (3), along with 15 known alkaloids, were isolated from the ethanolic extract of the stem bark of Winchia calophylla. The structures of 1-3 were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic means and chemical methods. The determination of relative configurations at C-19 and C-20 for 1-3 was aided by 13C NMR spectroscopic data. The absolute configurations of alkaloids 1-3 were determined by direct comparison of their CD spectra with those of known alkaloids. All the alkaloids were tested in cytotoxic assays against P-388 and A-549 tumor cell lines, and only two of them showed weak activity against the A-549 cell line.
