Phytochemical investigation on the root bark of Garcinia edulis (Clusiaceae) gave a new isoprenylated xanthone, 1,4,6-trihydroxy-3-methoxy-2-(3-methyl-2-butenyl)-5-(1,1-dimethyl-prop-2-enyl)xanthone (1), a known xanthone, forbexanthone (2) together with three known pentacyclic triterpenoids, friedelin, lupeol and lupeol acetate. The structure of the new compound was fully characterised by NMR spectroscopic analysis. Compound 1 showed significant anti-HIV-1 protease activity with IC(50) value of 11.3 microg/mL. Furthermore, compound 1 showed potent cytotoxic activity with LC(50) value of 2.36 microg/mL against brine shrimp larva in vitro.
植物化学研究表明,藤黄科藤黄属植物厚叶胡桐(Garcinia edulis)的根皮中含有一种新的异戊烯基黄烷酮,即 1,4,6-三羟基-3-甲氧基-2-(3-甲基-2-丁烯基)-5-(1,1-二甲基-2-丙烯基)黄烷酮(1),同时还含有另一种已知的黄烷酮化合物福贝紫檀酮(2)以及三种已知的五环三萜类化合物,分别为羽扇豆醇、羽扇豆醇乙酸酯和无羁萜。新化合物的结构通过核磁共振波谱分析得到了充分的表征。化合物 1 对 HIV-1 蛋白酶表现出显著的抑制活性,其半数抑制浓度(IC50)值为 11.3μg/mL。此外,化合物 1 对卤虫幼虫的体外细胞毒性活性较强,半数致死浓度(LC50)值为 2.36μg/mL。
