✦ Synopsis
Six new bicyclic peptides, celogentins D -H (1-5) and J ( 6) have been isolated from the seeds of Celosia argentea, and the structures including its absolute stereochemistry were determined by using extensive NMR methods and chemical means. Celogentins E -H (2 -5) and J (6) showed potent inhibition of tubulin polymerization, while the inhibitory activity of celogentin D (1) was modest. Structureactivity relationship study indicates that ring size of the bicyclic ring system including unusual b s -Leu, Trp, and His residues would be important for their biological activity.
