title: Anticancer activity of diterpenoids from Amoora ouangliensis and Amoora stellato-squamosa.
abstract: A new ent-halimane-type diterpene, named 5(10),14-ent-halimadien-3beta,13S-diol (1), was isolated from the bark of Amoora ouangliensis and its chemical structure determined on the basis of spectroscopic analysis. Additionally, ten other diterpenoids were obtained from A. ouangliensis and A. stellato-squamosa. The bioactive experiments of all compounds against AGZY 83-a (human lung cancer cells) and SMMC-7721 (human liver cancer cells) cells were documented.
