ABSTRACT
A new steroid with a long cross-conjugation structure, 15a-hydroxy-(22E, 24R)-ergosta-3, 5, 8 (14), 22-tetraen-7-one (1), was isolated from the marine-derived fungus Aspergillus aculeatus. Its structure was established by the extensive spectroscopic analyses, and its cytotoxicities against P388, HL-60, and PC-3 cell lines were measured in vitro.
ABSTRACT
In the structural determination of natural glycosides, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is an important approach in determining the configuration of glycoside bond. The test of coupling constant of the anomeric proton and chemical shift of the anomeric carbon are two common methods, but these methods are not suitable for some sugars. For those sugars, detailed 13C NMR analysis is an alternative choice. This paper summarizes the characteristics of 1H and 13C NMR data of the common monosaccharides published in the literatures, in order to search an approach to determine the configuration of glycoside bond.

Objective To study the chemical constituents in Sparganium stoloniferum. Methods The compounds were isolated by repeated silica gel and Sephadex LH-20 chromatographies. The structures of isolated compounds were identified by analysis of their spectral data and chemical reactions. Results Nine compounds were isolated and their structures were identified as daucosterol palmitate (Ⅰ), ?-sitosterol palmitate (Ⅱ), 24-methylenecycloartanol (Ⅲ), 6, 7, 10-trihydroxy-8-octadecenoic acid (Ⅳ), vanillic acid (Ⅴ), p-hydroxybenzaldehyde (Ⅵ), 2,3-dihydroxypropyl palmitate (Ⅶ), 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furaldehyde (Ⅷ), ?-sitosterol (Ⅸ). Conclusion Compounds Ⅰ-Ⅲ and Ⅴ-Ⅷ are obtained from the plants of Sparganium L. for the first time.
ABSTRACT
Object To study the chemical constituents from the roots of Stellera chamaejasme L. Methods Chemical constituents were isolated by chromatographic methods and identified by physiochemical and spectral analysis. Results One lignan and three biflavonoids were purified and determined as bursehernin (Ⅰ), chamaejasmenin B (Ⅱ), isoneochamaejasmin A (Ⅲ),and (+)-chamaejasmin (Ⅳ). Conclusion Compound Ⅲ and Ⅳ are determined as new optical compounds. Compound I is first isolated from Stellera L. species.
