Bioassay-directed fractionation of the organic extract of the Kenyan pyrethrum flowers (Chrysanthemum cinerariaefolium Vissiani) resulted in the isolation of two natural pyrethrin esters, pyrethrin I (PI) and pyrethrin II (PII) as the major constituents. These esters elicited inhibition of the multiple drug resistant (MDR) Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The high-field (1)H and (13)C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) chemical shifts of PI and PII were unequivocally assigned using modern two-dimensional (2D) proton-detected heteronuclear multiple-quantum coherence (HMQC) and heteronuclear multiple-bond correlation (HMBC) experiments. The conformations of both esters were deduced from (1)H-(1)H vicinal coupling constants and confirmed by 2D nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (NOESY). Computer molecular modeling (MM) studies revealed that PI and PII molecules adopt a "love-seat" conformation in chloroform (CDCl(3)) solution.
对肯尼亚除虫菊花(白花除虫菊)的有机提取物进行生物测定导向的分级分离,结果分离出两种天然除虫菊酯,即除虫菊酯I(PI)和除虫菊酯II(PII)作为主要成分。这些酯对多重耐药结核分枝杆菌有抑制作用。利用现代二维(2D)质子检测异核多量子相干(HMQC)和异核多键相关(HMBC)实验明确指定了PI和PII的高场(1)H和(13)C核磁共振(NMR)化学位移。两种酯的构象由(1)H-(1)H邻位偶合常数推导得出,并通过二维核Overhauser效应光谱(NOESY)得到证实。计算机分子建模(MM)研究表明,PI和PII分子在氯仿(CDCl3)溶液中呈“情侣座”构象。
