Abstract

Jatropha gossypifolia root bark is used in ethnomedicine for bacterial infections and cancer of the lungs. Phytochemical investigation resulted in the isolation and characterization of a potent anticancer and novel lathyrane diterpenoid compound, abiodone, with an unusual methylene group. The structure of this novel compound was established by 1D, and 2D NMR spectroscopic experiments and confirmed by X-ray analysis.
