Asprellic acid A

3,27-di-O-trans-p-coumaroyl-3beta,27-dihydroxy-olean-12-en-28-oic acid

C48H60O8 (764.428796)


A pentacyclic triterpenoid that is the diester obtained by the global condensation of the hydroxy groups of (3beta)-3,27-dihydroxyolean-12-en-28-oic acid with trans-4-coumaric acid. It is isolated from the dried leaves of Ilex asprella and exhibits significant toxicity against KB (epidermoid carcinoma of the nasopharynx) and RPMI-7951 (melanoma) cell lines.

   

Asprellic acid C

3-O-cis-p-coumaroyl-27-O-trans-p-coumaroyl-3beta,27-dihydroxy-olean-12-en-28-oic acid

C48H60O8 (764.428796)


A pentacyclic triterpenoid that is the diester obtained by the global condensation of the hydroxy groups of (3beta)-3,27-dihydroxyolean-12-en-28-oic acid with trans-4-coumaric acid and cis-4-coumaric acid respectively. It is isolated from the dried leaves of Ilex asprella and exhibits significant toxicity against KB (epidermoid carcinoma of the nasopharynx) and RPMI-7951 (melanoma) cell lines.
