Abstract
Two new isocoumarins (1 and 2), a new alkaloid (3), and a known N-acetyldopamine dimer (4) were isolated from the ethyl acetate extract of Chinese insect medicine Eupolyphaga sinensis. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of detailed spectroscopic investigations, such as 1D- and 2D NMR spectroscopy, as well as by means of HR-MS. The structure of 1 was firmly confirmed by X-ray crystallography, and the absolute configuration was revealed by experimental and computational optical rotation analyses. Cytotoxicities of 1-4 were measured in vitro against 10 selected cancer cell lines.
