Abstract

Two new cassane-type diterpenes, Caesalpinolide F (1) and Caesalpinolide G (2) were isolated from Caesalpinia minax Hance. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of 1D and 2D NMR, MS and CD analysis. Compounds 1 and 2 were tested against colon carcinoma (HCT-8) and breast cancer (MCF-7) human cancer cell lines, and showed mild cytotoxicity activities.
