Article Synopsis
- A study on the roots of Macfad (Rutaceae) identified two new compounds, 1-formyl-5-hydroxy--methylindolin-1-ium and decyloxycleomiscosin D, along with ten known compounds that were analyzed using advanced spectroscopic techniques.
- The structures of the new compounds were established through 1D and 2D NMR, EI- and ESI-MS, and comparisons with existing literature, marking their first identification in this genus.
- The methanol extract of the roots and the compounds were tested against cancer cell lines (A549 and PC3), showing the extract had significant anti-cancer activity, while the individual compounds displayed weaker effects.
The stem bark of Citrus × paradisi Macfad. (Rutaceae) gave (23S)-isolimonexic acid (1), limonin (2), citracridone II (3), citpressine II (4), citpressine I (5), grandisine (6), 2-hydroxynoracronycine (7), citracridone I (8), 5-methoxyseselin (9), umbelliferone (10), scopoletin (11), naringenin (12), apigenin (13), friedelin (14), agrostophyllinone (15) and stigmasterol-3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (16). The structures of the compounds were determined using NMR and MS spectroscopic data, and by comparison with published data.
