Harringtonolide (= hainanolide) is a complex polycyclic fused norditerpene isolated from CEPHALOTAXUS HARRINGTONIA var. DRUPACEA. In spite of its appealing biological properties - we measured an IC (50) of 43 nM on KB cells and a significant antifungal activity - its absolute configuration has not yet been firmly established. This was done herein using X-ray anomalous scattering after bromination of the tropone ring, unambiguously giving the stereochemistry 5 R,6 R,7 S,13 S,14 S,15 R,16 R. Detailed IN VITRO biological measurements are provided.
三尖杉酯碱(=海南粗榧内酯)是从粗榧(CEPHALOTAXUS HARRINGTONIA var. DRUPACEA)中分离得到的一种复杂的多环稠合降二萜。尽管它具有吸引人的生物学特性——我们测得其对KB细胞的半数抑制浓度(IC50)为43 nM,且具有显著的抗真菌活性——但其绝对构型尚未完全确定。本文通过对卓酚酮环进行溴化后利用X射线异常散射确定了其绝对构型,明确给出了立体化学结构为5R,6R,7S,13S,14S,15R,16R。文中还提供了详细的体外生物学测量数据。
