Article Abstract

In this study, a centrifugal partition chromatography (CPC) separation was applied to identify antioxidant-responsive element (ARE) induction molecules from the crude extract of roots. CPC was operated with a two-phase solvent system composed of -hexane-methanol-water (10:8.5:1.5, //) in dual mode (descending to ascending), which provided a high recovery rate (>95.5%) with high resolution. Then, ARE induction activity of obtained CPC fractions was examined in ARE-transfected HepG2 cells according to the weight ratios of the obtained fractions. The fraction exhibiting ARE-inducing activity was further purified by preparative HPLC that led to isolation of two eudesmane type sesquiterpenes as active compounds. The chemical structures were elucidated as linderolide U () and a new sesquiterpene named as linderolide V () by spectroscopic data. Further bioactivity test demonstrated that compounds and enhanced ARE activity by 22.4-fold and 7.6-fold, respectively, at 100 μM concentration while 5 μM of sulforaphane induced ARE activity 24.8-fold compared to the control.

Six undescribed sesquiterpenes artetourneforin F-K (1-6), along with six known compounds (7-12), were isolated from Artemisia tournefortiana. Their structures were established by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic data, HRESIMS, ECD, and quantum chemical calculations. Artetourneforin F-K (1-6) represented a rare 4,5-seco undescribed skeleton in natural sesquiterpenes, and a plausible biosynthetic pathway was proposed.

The chemical constituents of the chloroform extract of the 90% methanol extract obtained from the dried branches and leaves of Croton lauioides were investigated. By using silica gel column chromatography, C_(18 )column chromatography, MCI column chromatography, and semi-preparative high-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC), six compounds were isolated. Their structures were identified as lauioidine(1), 2α-methoxy-8α-hydroxy-6-oxogermacra-1(10),7(11)-dien-8,12-olide(2), myrrhanolide B(3), gossweilone(4), 6β,7β-epox-4α-hydroxyguaian-10-ene(5), and 4(15)-eudesmane-1β,5α-diol(6) by analyzing the HR-ESI-MS, IR, ECD, 1D NMR and 2D NMR data, as well as their physicochemical properties.
