Eleven derivatives (5-13, 15, and 16) of an immunosuppressive and cytotoxic tricyclic terpenoid, brasilicardin A (1), were prepared and assayed for inhibitory effects to the mouse mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) and seven human tumor cell lines. The 17N-methyl form (8) of 1 showed the most potent immunosuppressive activity in mouse MLR, while induction of more bulky group for N-17 resulted in significant decrease of the activity. Compound 8 also showed potent cytotoxic activity against DLD-1, Lu-65, A549, K562, and MOLT-4 cells, while the benzyl ester (13) of 1 exhibited potent cytotoxicity against K562, MOLT-4, and jarkat leukemia cell lines. The 17N-acetyl derivative (11) of 1 selectively inhibited the cell growth of DLD-1 cells. The methyl ester (5) of 1 showed potent cytotoxic activity against K562, MOLT-4, and Ball-1 cell lines, the last of which was resistant to 1, 8, and 13.

Three new tricyclic terpenoids, brasilicardins B-D (2-4), were isolated together with brasilicardin A (1), a potent immunosuppressive compound, from the cultured broth of a pathogenic actinomycete Nocardia brasiliensis IFM0406, and the structures and stereochemistry were determined by spectroscopic data and a single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The immunosuppressive and cytotoxic activities of 2-4 were examined in the comparison with 1.

Brasilinolide A (2) is a 32-membered polyhydroxyl macrolide with immunosuppressive activity isolated from a pathogenic actinomycete, Nocardia brasiliensis IFM0406. The absolute configurations at 26 chiral centers of 2 and its new congener, brasilinolide C (1), were determined on the basis of the spectral data of 1 and degradation products derived from 1 and 2.
