Abstract

A cytotoxic sesquiterpene against L1210 and Hl-60 cells was isolated from Angelicae Koreanae Radix (bulk-kang-hwal). The component was identified as bisabolangelone by means of chemical and physical methods. The $ED_{50}$ values of it were $1.20{\;}\mu\textrm{g}/ml$ against L1210 cells and $2.30{\;}\mu\textrm{g}/ml$ against HL-60 cells. Bisabolangelone was found in bulk-kang-hwal but not in kang-hwal.
