Published on: January 12, 2024

Eight new neoclerodane diterpenoids (compounds 1-8, scutebatas H-O) were identified.
Eight known compounds were also isolated.
Compounds 5, 6, and 7 demonstrated moderate cytotoxicity (IC50: 12.6-31.4 µM) against cancer cell lines.
Compound 1 exhibited selective cytotoxicity against the MCF-7 cell line.

Conclusions:

The study successfully identified novel neoclerodane diterpenoids from Scutellaria barbata.
Selected compounds possess cytotoxic potential against human cancer cells, warranting further investigation.
Compound 1 shows promise for targeted cancer therapy research.
