Chemical Compounds Isolated from Dendrobium crepidatum and Their Bioactive Activities / 昆明医科大学学报

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the chemical constituents from the herbs of Dendrobium crepidatum and identify its antitumor bioactive compounds.Methods The constituents were extracted by methyl alcohol and isolated by CC and Sephadex LH-20.Their structures were identified by spectroscopic analysis(1H NMR,13CNMR and EIMS).The antitumor activity of the constituents was determined by MTT assay in vitro.Results 9 compouds were obtained and identified as p-hydroxybenzaldehyde(1),p-methoxyphenol(2),p-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol(3),hydroquinone(4),(24R)-ethylcholest-5-en-3-ol-7-one(5),sinalexin(6),bis(2-ethylhexyl)benzene-1,2-dicarboxylate(7),pinoresinol(8),Chaenomin B(9).The antitumor activity of compounds 5～9 was tested,and it was found that compound 9 had good inhibitory activity against A549 cell line.Conclusion Compounds 2～5,7～8 were isolated from the herbs for the first time and compounds 6,9 were isolated from this genus for the first time.IC50 of 9 on A549 cell line is 29.35 μM.
