Resumen:
The phytochemical investigation of the dichloromethane-soluble part of themethanol extract obtained from the fruits of Melia azedarach afforded one new tirucallanetypetriterpene, 3-tigloylmelianol and three known tirucallanes, melianone, 21-acetoxy-melianone, and methyl kulonate. The structure of the isolated compoundswas mainly determined by 1D and 2D NMR experiments as well as HPLC-Q-TOF massspectrometry. The cytotoxicity of the isolated compounds toward the human lungadenocarcinoma epithelial cell line A549 was determined, while no activity was observedagainst the phytonematode Meloidogyne incognita.
