Two new compounds, (6S)-hydroxy-29-nor-3,4-seco-cycloart-4(30),24-dien-3-oic acid (1) and 8-[1-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-3-methoxy-3-oxopropyl]epicatechin (3), were isolated by bioassay-guided fractionation from the aerial parts of Antirhea acutata (DC.) Urb. (Rubiaceae). Compound 1 showed moderate inhibitory activities in cyclooxygenase-1 and -2 assays (IC(50) 43.7 and 4.7 microM, respectively), while compound 3 was active in 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl free-radical and cytochrome c reduction antioxidant assays (IC(50) 29.1 and 16.3 microM, respectively). Additionally, one further new compound was isolated, (3S,24S)-25-trihydroxy-9,19-cycloartane-29-oic acid (2), but this was inactive in the bioassay systems used. Compound 1 is based on the unprecedented 29-nor-3,4-seco-cycloartane skeleton.
通过生物活性导向分离法,从锐尖水锦树(Antirhea acutata (DC.) Urb.,茜草科)地上部分分离出两种新化合物,即(6S)-羟基-29-降-3,4-裂环环阿尔廷-4(30),24-二烯-3-酸(1)和8-[1-(3,4-二羟基苯基)-3-甲氧基-3-氧代丙基]表儿茶素(3)。化合物1在环氧合酶-1和-2测定中显示出中等抑制活性(IC(50)分别为43.7和4.7微摩尔),而化合物3在1,1-二苯基-2-苦基肼自由基和细胞色素c还原抗氧化测定中具有活性(IC(50)分别为29.1和16.3微摩尔)。此外,还分离出另一种新化合物,(3S,24S)-25-三羟基-9,19-环阿尔廷-29-酸(2),但该化合物在所使用的生物测定系统中无活性。化合物1基于前所未有的29-降-3,4-裂环环阿尔廷骨架。
