RESUMEN
A new diterpenoid, phyllane C (1), along with three known compounds, ovoideal E (2), spruceanol (3), and fluacinoid B (4) were isolated from the leaves of Phyllanthus acidus growing in Thailand. The structures were determined by analysis of their MS and NMR data as well as by comparison with literature values. DFT-NMR chemical shift calculations and subsequent DP4/DP4+ probability methods were applied to define the relative configuration of 1. Compound 3 showed a weak cytotoxicity against K562 cell line (IC50 41.9 ± 2.31 µg/mL).

From the leaves of Ricinus communis Linn., one new alkaloid, named ricicomin A (1) together with three known ones, ricinine (2), N-demethylricinine (3) and 4-[2-formyl-5-(methoxymethyl)-1H-pyrrol-1-yl]butanoic acid (4) were justified by repeated chromatographic methods. Their structures were determined by comprehensive IR, HR-ESI-MS and NMR analyses. Compound 4 was identified for the first time from the genus Ricinus. DFT-NMR chemical shift calculations and subsequent DP4+ probability methods were applied to confirm the chemical structure of 1. Compounds 1-3 did not display cytotoxic effect against three human cancer cell lines (MCF-7, HepG2 and HeLa) using SRB assay.

A new norlupane triterpenoid, 29-norlupane-1ß-hydroxy-3,20-dione (1), along with ten known compounds, 29-norlup-1-ene-3,20-dione (2), phyllanthol (3), phyllanthone (4), glochidone (5), lupeol (6), lupeone (7), 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (8), 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (9), phyllane A (10) and methyl ß-orsellinate (11) were isolated the twigs and leaves of Phyllanthus acidus. The structure of 1 was identified by interpretation of their spectroscopic data and comparison with those reported in the literature. In addition, all isolated compounds 1-11 were evaluated for their antioxidant activity.

Two new cycloartane glycosides, nervisides I-J, were isolated from Nervilia concolor whole plants. Their structures were unambiguously established by interpretation of their HRESIMS and 1D and 2D NMR data. These cycloartanes comprised a stereogenic center at C-24, the R configuration of which was assigned based on DFT-NMR calculations and the subsequent DP4 probability score. These compounds were tested for cytotoxicity against K562 and MCF-7 tumor cell lines, revealing mild cytotoxic activity.
