ABSTRACT
@#A new flavonoid glycoside, named(2R)-naringenin-5-O-β-D- xylopyranosyl(1→6)-β-D-glucopyranoside(1), together with other eight known compounds(2-9), was isolated and characterized. Compounds 3-5, 7-9 were isolated from the stem barks of Premna fulva for the first time. The anti-inflammatory activities of all the isolates were evaluated for their inhibitory effects against LPS-induced nitric oxide(NO)production in RAW 264. 7 macrophages cells. Compounds 2, 6-9 exhibited moderate anti-inflammatory activities.
ABSTRACT
@#Thirteen compounds were isolated from the stem bark of Bombax ceiba L. by silica gel, and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography. Their structures were identified by spectroscopic analysis as: lupeol(1), lupeone(2), betulinic acid(3), zeorin(4), oleanolic acid(5), 3-oxooleanolic acid(6), cleomiscosin A(7), (±)-lyoniresinol(8), desmosterol(9), stigma-3, 6-dione(10), (+)-lasiodiploidin(11), aurantiamide acetate(12), and(2S, 3S, 4R, 10E)-2-［(2R)-2-hydroxytetracosanoylamino］-10-octadecene-1, 3, 4-triol(13). Among them, compounds 3, 4, 6, 7-13 were isolated from this plant for the first time.
