abstract="We report the isolation of two known iridoid glucosides theviridoside (1) and theveside (2) from the aqueous extract of leaves of Cerbera odollam and semi-synthetic derivatisation of theveside prepared in a single step under protection group-free conditions. Derivatives 2a-j were evaluated for cytotoxicity towards five human cancer cell lines of different origins, namely SKBR3 (breast), HeLa (cervical), A375 (skin), HepG2 (liver) and HCT-116 (colon), and IC50 values were determined. Derivatives 2b and 2h exhibited moderate cytotoxicity against HCT-116 and A375 cell lines, respectively.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
