Thirteen previously undescribed (9β-H)-pimarane derivatives, icacinolides A-G (1-7) and oliviformislactones C-H (8-13), together with four known analogs (14-17), were isolated from the leaves of Icacina oliviformis. Their structures were constructed by extensive spectroscopic analysis, C NMR-DP4+ analysis, ECD calculation, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and chemical methods. These structurally diverse isolates were classified into six framework types: rearranged 3-epi-17-nor-(9β-H)-pimarane, rearranged 17-nor-(9β-H)-pimarane, 16-nor-(9β-H)-pimarane, 17-nor-(9β-H)-pimarane, 17,19-di-nor-(9β-H)-pimarane, and (9β-H)-pimarane. Among them, compounds 1, 5, and 7 were the first examples of three rearranged 3-epi-17-nor-(9β-H)-pimaranes featuring a unique (11S)-carboxyl-9-oxatricyclo[5.3.1.0]dodecane motif with contiguous stereogenic centers, whereas their C-3 epimers, compounds 2-4 and 6 were the second examples of four rearranged 17-nor-(9β-H)-pimaranes. Additionally, compounds 8 and 12/13 represented the second examples of a 16-nor-(9β-H)-pimarane and two 17,19-di-nor-(9β-H)-pimaranes, respectively. In cytotoxic bioassay, compound 2 exhibited significant cytotoxic against HT-29 with IC values of 7.88 μM, even stronger than 5-fluorouracil, and 15 showed broad-spectrum cytotoxic activities against HepG2, HT-29, and MIA PaCa-2 with IC values of 11.62, 9.77, and 4.91 μM, respectively. Meanwhile, a preliminary structure-activity relationship suggested that 3,20-epoxy, 6,19-lactone, 2-OH, 7-OH, and 8-OH in (9β-H)-pimarane derivatives might be active groups, whereas ring C aromatization may decrease the cytotoxic activities.
从橄榄叶滨藜的叶子中分离出13种先前未描述的(9β-H)-海松烷衍生物,即滨藜内酯A-G(1-7)和橄榄叶内酯C-H(8-13),以及4种已知类似物(14-17)。它们的结构通过广泛的光谱分析、碳核磁共振- DP4+分析、电子圆二色计算、单晶X射线衍射和化学方法确定。这些结构多样的分离物被分为六种骨架类型:重排的3-表-17-降-(9β-H)-海松烷、重排的17-降-(9β-H)-海松烷、16-降-(9β-H)-海松烷、17-降-(9β-H)-海松烷、17,19-二降-(9β-H)-海松烷和(9β-H)-海松烷。其中,化合物1、5和7是三种重排的3-表-17-降-(9β-H)-海松烷的首个实例,其具有独特的(11S)-羧基-9-氧杂三环[5.3.1.0]十二烷基序且带有相邻的手性中心,而它们的C-3差向异构体,即化合物2-4和6是四种重排的17-降-(9β-H)-海松烷的第二个实例。此外,化合物8和12/13分别代表16-降-(9β-H)-海松烷和两种17,19-二降-(9β-H)-海松烷的第二个实例。在细胞毒性生物测定中,化合物2对HT-29表现出显著的细胞毒性,IC值为7.88 μM,甚至强于5-氟尿嘧啶,化合物15对HepG2、HT-29和MIA PaCa-2表现出广谱细胞毒性活性,IC值分别为11.62、9.77和4.91 μM。同时,初步的构效关系表明,(9β-H)-海松烷衍生物中的3,20-环氧、6,19-内酯、2-OH、7-OH和8-OH可能是活性基团,而环C芳构化可能会降低细胞毒性活性。
