Abstract

A novel lanostane-type triterpene, (24E)-3,4-seco-9${\beta}$H-lanosta- 4(28),7,24- triene- 3,26- dioic acid was isolated from Abies koreana (Pinaceae) which is a tall evergreen tree grown indigenously in southern Korea. The structure of this compound was characterized by spectroscopic methods. Cytotoxicity of the compound was evaluated in vitro using the SRB method, and it showed marginal activity against human cancer cell lines.
