Abstract

The styrylpyrone, goniodiol-7-monoacetate [1] [6R-(7R,8R-dihydro-7-acetoxy-8-hydroxystyryl)-5, 6-dihydro-2-pyrone], has been isolated from Goniothalamus amuyon, and its detailed molecular structure has been determined by X-ray crystallographic analysis. Goniodiol-7-monoacetate showed potent (ED50 values less than 0.1 microgram/ml) cytotoxicities against KB, P-388, RPMI, and TE671 tumor cells.
