RESUMO
Objective To investigate the chemical constituents of Peperomia blanda. Methods Guided by HPLC detection, integrated methods including vacuum liquid chromatography (VLC), ODS and semi-preparative RP-HPLC were used for separation. The structure was determined by spectral analyses including ESI-MS, 1D NMR, 2D NMR and ECD spectra. Results Four compounds were isolated and identified as (7S,7’S,8R,8 ’R)-7-(5-methoxy-3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)-7-(4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxy-phenyl)-8, 8-dihydroxymethyltetrahydrofuran (1), 7, 8-trans-8,8-trans-7,8-cis-7, 7-(4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxy phenyl)-8,8-di-acetoxymethyltetrahydrofuran (2), (+)-(7S, 7S, 8R, 8R)-4, 4-dihydroxy-3, 3, 5, 5-tetramethoxy-7, 9, 7, 9-diepoxylignane (3), and (6R, 7E, 9R)-9-hydroxy-4, 7-megastigmadien-3-one (4). Conclusion Compound 1 is a new tetrahydrofuran lignan, compounds 2-4 were isolated from P. blanda for the first time.
