Abstract:Two new alkaloids A, B identified as 1,3-oxazacyclohexane skeleton were isolated from the seeds of Celastrus angulatus. Previous studies were focus on the sesquiterpene poloyol esters and sesquiterpene alkaloids from this family plants, which we have reported the separation and structural elucidation of two new alkaloids A, B from the same plant in recent days. Their structures were respectivily identified as 2α-(2'-pyrrolyl)-4α-methoxycarbony1-1, 3-oxazacyclohexane (A) and 2α-(2'-pyrrolyl)-4α-methoxycarbonyl-5β-[(2"-methyl)-hepty1]-1, 3-oxazacyclohexane (B). The compound B demonstrated moderate cytotoxicity against non-small lung cancer (NCL-H23) cell line by the National Cancer Institute in vitro cytotoxicity screen.
