Rocaglates are a series of structurally complex secondary metabolites with considerable cytotoxicity that have been isolated from plants of the Aglaia genus (Meliaceae). A new rocaglate (aglapervirisin A, 1) and its eight new biosynthetic precursors of rocaglate (aglapervirisins B-J, 2-9) together with five known compounds, were isolated from the leaves of Aglaia perviridis. Their structures were elucidated based on a joint effort of spectroscopic methods [IR, UV, MS, ECD, 1D- and 2D-NMR, HRESIM ...[more]
