Cytotoxic labdane diterpenoids from Croton oblongifolius.
Three labdane diterpenoids, 2-acetoxy-3-hydroxy-labda-8(17),12(E)-14-triene, 3-acetoxy-2-hydroxy-labda-8(17),12(E)-14-triene, and 2,3-dihydroxy-labda-8(17),12(E),14-triene were isolated from stem bark of Croton oblongifolius. Their structures were established by spectroscopic data, and each was also tested for cytotoxicity against various human tumor cell lines. The latter compound showed non-specific, moderate, cytotoxicities against all the cell lines; whereas the first two compounds were less active.
