| Resumo | |
The present study describes the structure elucidation of the new beta-lapachone type naphthoquinone isolated from the roots of Distictella elongata. Its structure, according to the molecular formula C(16)H(16)O(6), was identified as 4,7-dihydroxy-10-methoxy-2,2-dimethyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo{[}h]chromene- 5,6-dione. The structure was assigned by spectrometric methods {[}HRESIMS, 1D NMR ((1)H and (13)C), and 2D NMR (g-DQF-COSY, g-HMQC and g-HMBC]. Root chloroform extract of D. elongata showed significant inhibition of the growth of SK-MEL (melanoma) and SK-OV-3 (ovary adenocarcinoma) cells with IC(50) values of 40 mu g mL(-1) and 56 mu g mL(-1), respectively. However, the naphthoquinone was not responsible for the cytotoxic activity exhibited by the extract. (AU) | |
