RESUMO
Phytochemical investigation of the aerial parts of Prinsepia utilis Royle resulted in the isolation and identification of ten pentacyclic triterpenoids, including two new triterpenoids, 2α-O-trans-p-coumaroyl-3ß,19α-dihydroxy-urs-12-en-28-oic acid (1) and 2α-O-cis-p-coumaroyl-3ß,19α-dihydroxy-urs-12-en-28-oic acid (2), along with eight known pentacyclic triterpenoids (3-10). The structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic methods and by comparison to previously reported spectroscopic data. Most of these compounds showed significant cytotoxic activities against four human cancer cell lines (A549, HCT116, MDA-MB-231, and CCRF-CEM), and the structure-activity relationships are also discussed.

γ-Hydroxynitrile glucosides (prinsepicyanosides A-E) were isolated alongside 11 known compounds from seeds of Prinsepia utilis Royle. Their structures were determined by detailed analysis of NMR and MS spectroscopic data. The relative configuration of prinsepicyanoside C was established by Cu-Kα X-ray crystallography. Prinsepicyanoside A, osmaronin, and 4-(hydroxylmethyl)-5H-furan-2-one exhibited borderline antibacterial activity against Salmonella gallinarum, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, and Vibrio cholera with MIC values of 30.1, 20.7, and 22.8µg/mL, respectively.
