Anatolicin, a Highly Potent and Selective Cytotoxic Sesquiterpene Coumarin from the Root Extract of <i>Heptaptera anatolica</i>

Seven known sesquiterpene coumarins and a new sesquiterpene coumarin, anatolicin (<b>8</b>), were isolated from the dichloromethane extract of the roots of <i>Heptaptera anatolica</i>. Structures of these compounds were elucidated based on their spectral properties. While som...
