Two new lignan derivatives (1 and 2), along with the known scopoletin (3), methyl caffeate (4), falcarindiol (5), 3,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid, 3,5-dicaffeoylquinic methyl ester, chlorogenic acid, p-hydroxyphenylethyl-trans-ferulate, and vanillin, were isolated from extracts of the roots of Chaerophyllum hirsutum. Structure elucidation of the new compounds was carried out by 1D and 2D NMR experiments and by HRMS analysis. Several of the isolated compounds were tested for their cytotoxic activity against the HL-60, HT-1080, LoVo, and LoVo/Doxo cell lines.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
