Abstract
From the fruits of Angelica edulis Miyabe (Umbelliferae), three new angular furanocoumarins, edulisin III (1), edulisin IV (2), and edulisin V (3), were isolated along with three known coumarins, 2'(S), 3'(R)-3'-isobutyryloxy-4'-acetoxy-2',3'-dihydrooroselol (4), edultin (5), and 2'(S),3'(R)-3'-senecioyloxy-4'-acetoxy-2',3'-dihydrooroselol (6), respectively. The structures of 1 and 2 were established to be 2'(S),3'(R)-3'-(2-methylbutyryloxy)-4'-acetoxy-2',3'-dihydrooro selol and 2'-(S),3'(R)-3'-propyryloxy-4'-acetoxy-2',3'-dihydrooroselol by chemical studies and spectral analyses. Coumarin 3 was proved to be 3'-(2-methylbutyryl-oxy)-4'-angeloyloxy-2',3'-dihydrooroselol++ + by chemical and spectral analyses and H-C COLOC. Coumarins 1-6 were examined for the effects on tumor-promotor induced phenomena in vitro. Among these coumarins, 3 showed the most potent inhibitory activity on 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA)-stimulated 32Pi incorporation into phospholipids of cultured cells.
