Abstract

Two novel biphenyl dimers, caesappanin A (1) and B (2), were isolated from the ethanol extract of the heartwood of Caesalpinia sappan. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data including IR, HRESIMS, 1D and 2D NMR. Preliminary bioassays showed that compound 1 possessed potent cytotoxic effects against 4 cell lines including HCT-8, BGC-823, A549 and A2780 with IC(50) between 1.67μM and 4.88μM.<br /> (Copyright © 2011 Elsevier B.V.
