Two new diterpenoids, rigidusol and deacetylrigidusol, were isolated from Haplopappus rigidus Phil. Rigidusol showed moderate cytotoxic activity against the human breast cancer cell line MCF-7.

Area of Science:

  • Phytochemistry
  • Natural Products Chemistry
  • Organic Chemistry

Background:

  • Haplopappus rigidus Phil. is a plant species with potential medicinal properties.
  • Natural products are a source of novel therapeutic agents.
  • Bioassay-guided fractionation is a common strategy for isolating active compounds.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To isolate and characterize new diterpenoids from Haplopappus rigidus Phil.
  • To evaluate the cytotoxic activity of the isolated compounds.

Main Methods:

  • Phytochemical analysis of Haplopappus rigidus aerial parts.
  • Brine shrimp lethality test (BST) for bioassay-guided fractionation.
  • Structure elucidation using 2D Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy (DEPT, DQF-COSY, HMQC, HMBC).

Main Results:

  • Isolation of two new cis-cleroda-3,14-diene diterpenoids: rigidusol and deacetylrigidusol.
  • Rigidusol's structure: 13-hydroxy-18-acetoxy-cis-cleroda-3,14-diene (8βH, 10βH, 19β, 20α form).
  • Deacetylrigidusol's structure: 13,18-dihydroxy-cis-cleroda-3,14-diene (8βH, 10βH, 19β, 20α form).
  • Rigidusol demonstrated moderate cytotoxic activity against the MCF-7 human breast adenocarcinoma cell line.

Conclusions:

  • The study successfully isolated and characterized two novel diterpenoids from Haplopappus rigidus.
  • Rigidusol exhibits potential as an anticancer agent, warranting further investigation.
  • The findings contribute to the understanding of the chemical constituents of Haplopappus rigidus and their biological activities.
