Chemical investigation on Orthosiphon diffusus resulted in the isolation of two new polychiral furanopyrans, orthodiffenes E-F (5- 6) along with earlier reported polychiral furanopyrans, orthodiffenes A-D (1-4). The new molecules were characterized from the detailed studies of their 1D, 2D NMR spectra and mass spectra. Orthodiffenes A-D (1-4) has been reported earlier to be significantly cytotoxic against cancer cell lines. The new molecules orthodiffenes E-F (5-6) are expected to be cytotoxic against cancer cell lines due to structural similarity to orthodiffenes A-D (1-4).
