Two bioactive mono-tetrahydrofuran acetogenins, annoglacins A and B, from Annona glabra.
Two new bioactive mono-THF Annonaceous acetogenins, annoglacins A and B, have been isolated from the fractionated ethanolic extracts of the leaves of Annona glabra, directing the fractionation with the brine shrimp lethality test (BST). Their structures were elucidated based on spectroscopic and chemical methods and the absolute stereochemistries were determined by the advanced Mosher ester method. Annoglacins A and B were selectively 1000 and 10,000 times, respectively, more potent than adriamycin against the human breast carcinoma (MCF-7) and pancreatic carcinoma (PACA-2) cell lines in our panel of six human solid tumor cell lines.
