Their structures were established by means of spectroscopic analyses including one- and two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy and high-resolution MS. Compounds 6, 7, and 10 showed cytotoxic activity against a panel of tumor cell lines, including L5178Y, HeLa, and PC12 cells, with 7 being the most active (EC(50) against L5178Y cell line: 0.6 microg/mL). | | Language | eng | | Pub Type(s) | Journal Article
