ABSTRACT
Two new labdane diterpenoids were isolated from 95% ethanol extract of the leaves of Callicarpa formosana Rolfe by using silica gel column, MCI column, ODS column and HPLC. Their structures were elucidated by HR-ESI-MS, NMR and ECD spectral data. All of them are new compounds, named 13E-6β-hydroxylabda-8(17),13-dien-15-oic acid (1) and 13E-7α-hydroxylabda-8(17),13-dien-15-oic acid (2). Compounds 1 and 2 were tested for antioxidant activity, and none of them had obvious activity.
ABSTRACT
A new carbazole alkaloid was isolated from the aqueous extract of the stems of Clausena lansium (Lour.) Skeels by various chromatographic methods, including HPD-100, PRP-512A, silica gel, and reverse phase C18. Its structure was determined by spectroscopic and chemical methods, including UV, IR, HR-ESI-MS, 1D/2DNMR and ECD. Compound 1, named as Claulamine F, showed no antimicrobial activity on Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli or Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In addition, compound 1 exhibited no cytotoxicity on five kinds of cancer cells through MTT methods.
ABSTRACT
The chemical constituents of the aerial parts of Lespedeza cuneata (Dum. Cour.) G. Don were investigated using chromatographic techniques, such as silica gel, reversed phase MPLC and preparative HPLC. Five compounds were isolated and their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic data and physicochemical properties, which were identified as 7-O-glucosyllaburnetin (1), kaempferol-3-O-β-D-galactopyranoside (2), kaempferol-3-O-α-L-rhamnoside (3), vitexin (4), and isovitexin (5). Among those, compound 1 is a new compound, compounds 2-3 were isolated from this plant for the first time. Compounds 1-5 were tested for their anti-ulcerative colitis activity by dual luciferase report gene assay targeting xbp1. Compared with control group, compound 1 showed a certain activity on activating the transcription of xbp1, with its relative activating ratio being 1.80 times.
ABSTRACT
To study the chemical constituents of the fruits of Paliurus ramosissimus, various chromatographic techniques were used to separate and purify the chemical constituents. Three triterpenes have been isolated and purified by using various column chromatography. Their structures were elucidated by their physico-chemical properties and spectroscopic data. These compounds were determined as: 22S, 23R-epoxy-tirucalla-7-ene-3alpha,24, 25-triol (1), 21S, 23R-epoxy-21, 24S, 25-trihydroxy-apotirucalla-7-ene-3-one (2), 21R, 23R-epoxy-21-ethoxy-24S, 25-dihydroxy-apotirucalla-7-ene-3-one (3), separately. Compound 1 is a new compound, and the others were obtained from this genus for the first time.
