RESUMO
Ionone alkaloid 9-(N,N-dimethyl)-4,7-megastigmedien-3-one (compound 1) is a new anti-metastatic natural product. However, it was previously reported as optical isomers mixture. Herein, the optical isomers (6a-6d) of compound 1 were synthesized. The absolute configurations of 6a-6d were determined by ECD experiments and calculated spectra with time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT). The anti-metastatic effects of the optical isomers were examined by transwell assay. These results revealed that compound 6a had potential anti-metastatic activity with an IC50 value of 0.512⯱â¯0.093⯵M.
