Thoms. This compound possesses five hydroxyl groups, with two hydroxyl groups at C-8 and C-10 positions. The absolute stereochemistry at 8-OH and 10-OH positions Nas determined by converting 1 to its ketolactone isomer, 2,4-cis/trans gardnerin. Bioactivities of this new compound against human tumor cell lines are reported. Five known acetogenin compounds gigantetrocin A and B, annonacin, goniothalamicin, isoannonacin were also found.展开更多
