Résumé
Objective: Based on structural modification of monomeric compound calenduloside E from Aralia elata, to evaluate anti-inflammatory activity of the analogues. Methods: Applying oleanolic acid as starting material, the target compounds were prepared by seven steps reactions and evaluated for anti-inflammatory effects by RAW264. 7 cells in vitro. Results: Ten analogues G1-G5 and H1-H5 were synthesized. The structures of the target compounds were identified by spectrum. Pharmacological results showed that all of the compounds had different levels potency of anti-inflammatory effects in cells. In particular, compounds G1-G4 and H1-H3 showed significant anti-inflammatory activity comparing wiht lead compounds. Conclusion: The new compounds G1-G5 and H1-H5 which showed potential of anti-inflammatory biological activity, had not been reported in any literatures and deserved further research.
