Abstract
Phytochemical investigations of the leaf and pod extracts of Millettia brandisiana Kurz led to the isolation and identification of four previously undescribed rotenoids, (-)-(6aS,12aS)-millettiabrandisins A-C and (-)-(6aS,12aS)-6-deoxyclitoriacetal, two previously undescribed isoflavones, millettiabrandisins D and E, and 20 known compounds. The structures of previously undescribed compounds were determined on the basis of NMR and MS data. The absolute configurations of (-)-(6aS,12aS)-millettiabrandisins A-C were determined from the comparison of their experimental and calculated ECD spectra. (-)-(6aR,12aR)-12a-Hydroxy-α-toxicarol was also confirmed by X-ray crystallographic data. Some isolated compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against three cancer cell lines, including lung cancer (A549), colorectal cancer (SW480), and leukemic cells (K562). Of these, α-toxicarol displayed the best cytotoxicity against lung cancer (A549) and leukemic cells (K562) with the IC50 values of 104.4 and 67.5 μM, respectively. 6″,6″-Dimethylchromene-[2″,3″:7,8]-flavone showed the highest cytotoxicity against colorectal cancer (SW480) with an IC50 value of 97.2 μM.
