Abstract

A new ent-kaurene diterpene, pseudoirroratin A (1), and a known diterpene, pseurata A, were isolated from Isodon pseudo-irrorata. Compound 1 showed significant cytotoxicity against the Lu1, SW626, LNCaP, KB, and HOS cancer cell lines with IC50 values of 0.26 (0.75), 0.20 (0.57), 0.90 (2.59), 0.90 (2.59), and 0.50 (1.44) μg/mL (μM), respectively. The structure of 1 was elucidated by spectroscopic means including 1D and 2D NMR techniques.
