RESUMEN
Two new 7,6'-coupled naphthylisoquinolines, namely ancistrotectorines A (1) and B (2), two new 5,3'-coupled naphthylisoquinolines, namely ancistrotectorines C (3) and D (4), and one new 7,8-coupled naphthylisoquinoline, namely ancistrotectorine E (5), together with 9 known naphthylisoquinoline alkaloids, hamatine (6), ancistrobertsonine B (7), ancistrocladinine (8), hamatinine (9), ancistrotanzanine A (10), ancistrotanzanine B (11), ancistrotectoriline B (12), 7-epi-ancistrobrevine D (13), and ancistrotectorine (14), were isolated from the 70% EtOH extract of Ancistrocladus tectorius. Their structures were elucidated based on the extensive analysis of spectroscopic data (1D, 2D NMR and MS). Compound 5 exhibited inhibitory activities against HL-60, K562 and U937 cell lines with IC50 values of 1.70, 4.18 and 2.56 µM respectively.
