RESUMO
Objective: To study the chemical constituents of aerial part of Rosmarinus officinalis. Methods: Compounds were isolated and purified by repeated column chromatography on silica gel column and Sephadex LH-20 gel column. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by analysis of their NMR and HRESIMS data. The cytotoxicity of the compounds was evaluated by SRB methods. Results: Ten compounds were obtained and identified as 7-O-isopropyl-epirosmanol (1), 7-O-isopropyl rosmaquinone (2), rosmanol (3), 7-O-methyl-rosmanol (4), epirosmanol (5), 7-methoxy-epirosmanol (6), rosmaquinone B (7), carnosol (8), galdosol (9) and pisiferal (10). Conclusion: Compounds 1 and 2 are new abietane diterpenes named 7-O-isopropyl-epirosmanol (1), 7-O-isopropyl rosmaquinone (2), and showed no cytotoxicity.
