Six lignan compounds, 1-(17,21-dihydroxyphenyl)-9-(12,13-dihydroxyphenyl)-1-nonanone (malabaricone C) (1), 7'-(3',4'-methylenedioxyphenyl)-8,8'-dimethyl-7-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-butane (2), 7'-(3',4'-dimethoxyphenyl)-8,8'-dimethyl-7-(3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenyl)-butane (3), 7-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-7'-(3',4'-methylenedioxyphenyl)-8,8'-lignan-7-methyl ether (4), (+)-erythro-(7S,8R)-Δ∨8'-7-hydroxy-3,4,3',5'-tetramethoxy-8-O-4'-neolignan (5), and (+)-erythro-(7S,8R)-Δ∨8'-7-acetoxy-3,4,3',5'-tetramethoxy-8-O-4'-neolignan (6), were isolated from the seeds of Myristica fragrans. The chemical structures of these compounds were determined on the basis of spectroscopic analyses including 2D NMR. Compounds 1 - 6 were evaluated for their cytotoxic activity against the HL-60, MCF-7, and A549 cancer cell lines in in vitro.
