Abstract

Purification of CHCl3 and EtOAc solubles of the MeOH extract of Cephalanceropsis gracilis afforded seven new indole alkaloids, cephalinones A (1), B (2), C (3), and D (4) and cephalandoles A (5), B (6), and C (7), besides eight known compounds. The structures of the new compounds were determined by spectroscopic analysis. All 15 indole alkaloids were evaluated for their cytotoxic effects on MCF-7, NCI-H460, and SF-268 cell lines by the MTT method. Only cephalinone-F (6) showed significant cytotoxicity.
