Bioassay-guided (P388 lymphocytic leukemia cell line) separation of extracts prepared from the leaves, stems, and pods of Bauhinia purpurea, and, in parallel, its roots, led to the isolation of four new dibenz[b,f]oxepins (2a, 3-5) named bauhiniastatins 1-4, as well as the known and related pacharin (1) as cancer cell growth inhibitors. The occurrence of oxepin derivatives in nature is quite rare. Bauhiniastatins 1-4 were found to exhibit significant growth inhibition against a minipanel of human cancer cell lines, and bauhiniastatin 1 (2a) was also found to inhibit the P388 cancer cell line. Structures for these new cancer cell growth inhibitors were established by spectroscopic techniques that included HRMS and 2D NMR.
