New Nervogenic Acid Derivatives from Liparis nervosa

Abstract

Ten new nervogenic acid derivatives (1–4, 6–11) and one known compound (5) have been isolated from Liparis nervosa. Their structures were determined using extensive spectroscopic analysis, including 1D and 2D NMR experiments. Compounds 3, 4, 9, 10, and 11 were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against A549, H460, Hela, MCF-7, Caco2, and HepG2 human cancer cell lines.

Key words

Orchidaceae - Liparis nervosa - benzamide acid derivatives - nervogenic acid derivatives - cytotoxicity
