胆甾-4α-甲基-8-烯-3β，7α-二醇二乙酸酯的结构与性质研究

Lophenol, cholest-4α-methyl-7-en-3β-ol (1), obtained from Dracaena cochinchinensis (Lour.) S. C. Chen, was structurally modified. It was acetylated to protect 3β-hydroxyl group, and then oxidised by selenium dioxide in acetic acid to give cholest-4a-methyl-8-en-3β, Ta-diol diacetate (3). This compound 3 is unstable in chloroform solution or when heated and easily converted to a diene compound, cholest-4a-methyl-7,14-dien-3β-ol acetate (4). The structures of 3 and 4 were elucidated by means of IR, ^1H NMR, ^13C NMR and MS, and the absolute configuration of 3 was established by X-ray crystallography. The property of 3 was also discussed in this paper. Both 3 and 4 are new compounds and were reported for the first time.     

Nimonol and 6‐oxonimonol

The crystal structures of two intact limonoids, nimonol,7α‐­acetyl‐17α‐(3‐furyl)‐6α‐hydroxy‐4α,4β,8β‐trimethyl‐5α,18α‐androsta‐1,14‐dien‐3‐one (C₂₈H₃₆O₅), and 6‐oxonimonol,7α‐acetyl‐17α‐(3‐furyl)‐4α,4β,8β‐trimethyl‐5α,18α‐androsta‐1,14‐diene‐3,6‐dione (C₂₈H₃₄O₅), are reported. The molecular features are mostly the same in the two structures; however the orientations of the acetoxy group are different in the two structures. The packing in nimonol is due to O—H?O hydrogen bonds while in 6‐oxonimonol it is due to C—H?O hydrogen bonds.     

New oxidized sterols from Aspergillus awamori and the endo‐boat conformation adopted by the cyclohexene oxide system

Two new oxidized sterols 1 and 2 were obtained from the active fraction of a mangrove fungus Aspergillus awamori isolated from the soils around the mangrove plant Acrostichum speciosum. Their structures were elucidated using spectroscopic methods as 22E‐7α‐methoxy‐5α,6α‐epoxyergosta‐8(14),22‐dien‐3β‐ol (1) and 22E‐3β‐hydroxy‐5α,6α,8α,14α‐diepoxyergosta‐22‐en‐7‐one (2). The NMR data and complete assignments for both DMSO‐d₆ and CDCl₃ were given. Their cytotoxic activity against A549 cell line was evaluated. Furthermore, the detailed conformation analysis for ring B (cyclohexene oxide system) of sterol 1 was given on the basis of NOEs. The endo‐boat conformation was considered as the preferred conformation for ring B rather than half‐chair conformation. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Two New Tetracyclic Triterpenoids and Other Constituents from Aster Ageratoides var. Oophyllus

Two new tetracyclic triterpenoids shiona‐19(E),21‐dien‐3β‐ol ( 1 ), and shiona‐22(29)‐en‐3β,21‐diol ( 2 ), together with four known compounds shiona‐21‐en‐3β‐ol ( 3 ), friedelinol ( 4 ), β‐sitosterol ( 5 ), and (24R)‐stigmast‐7,22(E)‐dien‐3a‐ol ( 6 ) were isolated from Aster ageratoides var. oophyllus. The structures of two new compounds were established on the basis of IR, MS, ¹H, ¹³C and 2D NMR spectroscopic methods.     

The α‐ and β‐epoxides of 3β‐acet­oxy‐5α‐lanost‐9(11)‐en‐7‐one

The structures of 3β‐acet­oxy‐9α,11α‐ep­oxy‐5α‐lanost‐9(11)‐en‐7‐one and 3β‐acet­oxy‐9β,11β‐ep­oxy‐5α‐lanost‐9(11)‐en‐7‐one, C₃₂H₅₂O₄, differ in their respective substituted cyclo­hexa­none rings but adopt similar conformations in the other three rings. In both of the crystal structures, weak inter­molecular C—H⋯O inter­actions are present.     

Two isomers of 2,4‐di­benzyl‐8‐azabicyclo­[3.2.1]­octan‐3‐ol

The crystal structures of the title compounds, 2α,4α‐di­benzyl‐3α‐tropanol (2α,4α‐di­benzyl‐8‐methyl‐8‐aza­bi­cyclo­[3.2.1]­octan‐3α‐ol), C₂₂H₂₇NO, (I), and 2α,4α‐di­benzyl‐3β‐tropanol (2α,4α‐di­benzyl‐8‐methyl‐8‐aza­bi­cyclo­[3.2.1]­octan‐3β‐ol), C₂₂H₂₇NO, (II), show that both compounds have a piperidine ring in a chair conformation and a pyrrolidine ring in an envelope conformation. Isomer (I) is asymmetric, the benzyl groups having different orientations, whereas isomer (II) is mirror symmetric, and the N and O atoms, the C atom attached to the hydroxy group, and the methyl C atom attached to the N atom lie on the mirror plane. In the crystal structures of both (I) and (II), the mol­ecules are linked together by intermolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds to form chains that run parallel to the a direction in (I) and parallel to b in (II).     

New Sesquiterpenes from Ligulariopsis Shichuana

A thorough investigation of Ligulariopsis shichuana afforded five new sesquiterpenes, including 1β,10β‐epoxy‐3α‐angeloyloxy‐9β‐acetoxy‐8α,11β‐dihydroxybakkenolide ( 1 ), 1β,7‐dihydroxy‐3β‐acetoxy‐noreremophil‐6(7),9(10)‐dien‐8‐one ( 2 ), 8α‐hydroxy‐3‐oxoeremophil‐1(2),7(11),9(10)‐trien‐8β(12)‐olide ( 3 ), 1β,10β‐dihydroxy‐3β‐acetoxyeremophil‐7(11),8(9)‐dien‐8(12)‐olide ( 4 ) and 1β,10β‐epoxy‐8,12‐dihydroxy‐3β‐acetoxy‐9β‐angeloyloxyeremophil‐7(11)‐en‐8,12‐disemiketal ( 5 ).

Their structures were elucidated by mean of extensive spectroscopic methods, including ¹H, ¹³C, 2D‐NMR and HR‐EI‐MS, as well as comparison with the literature data. Compounds 1 , 4 , 5 , 8 , and 91 were not cytotoxic against the SK‐Hep 1 cell line.     

Azabrendanes. III. Synthesis of stereoisomeric exo‐ and endo‐5‐acylaminomethyl‐exo‐2,3‐epoxybicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes and their reduction by lithium aluminum hydride

A number of stereoisomeric N‐[aryl(alkyl, cycloalkyl)carbonyl]‐exo(endo)‐5‐aminomethylbicyclo[2.2.1]hept‐2‐enes have been synthesized from bicyclo[2.2.1]hept‐2‐en‐exo(endo)‐5‐carbonitrile via reduction of the latter by lithium aluminum hydride and subsequent reactions of the resulting amines with aryl(alkyl, cycloalkyl)carbonyl chlorides and anhydrides. The direction of reaction of amides with peroxy acids does not depend on orientation of substituents in the bicyclic fragment: that is, for both exo‐ and endo‐isomers the epoxidations are completed by the formation of N‐[aryl(alkyl, cycloalkyl)carbonyl]‐exo(endo)‐5‐aminomethyl‐exo‐2,3‐epoxybicyclo[2.2.1] heptanes. The reduction of stereoisomeric epoxides by lithium aluminium hydride proceeds in different directions; that is, isomers with an exo‐oriented amido group form the substituted exo‐5‐alkylaminomethyl‐exo‐2,3‐epoxybicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes and the reactions of epoxides of endo‐amides are accompanied by intramolecular cyclization and completed by the formation of N‐[aryl(alkyl, cycloalkyl)]‐exo‐2‐hydroxy‐4‐azatricyclo[4.2.1.0^3,7]nonanes. The structures and stereochemical homogenity of the products have been confirmed by the analysis of ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra, correlation spectroscopy, and nuclear Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy experiments. We discuss the behavior of epoxides and provide an analysis of the coefficients of the atomic orbitals in the molecular orbital–linear combination of atomic orbitals equation (AM1 method). © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Cytotoxic Activity of Capnellene‐8β, 10α‐Diol Derivatives from a Taiwanese Soft Coral Capnella sp.

The sesquiterpene capnellene‐8β, 10α‐diol ( 1 ) was isolated from non‐polar extract of the soft coral Capnella sp. Ten acylation products of capnellene‐8β, 10α‐diol were prepared: 10α‐hydroxy‐8β‐O‐benzoylcapnellene ( 2 ), 10α‐hydroxy‐8β‐O‐p‐toluoylcapnellene ( 3 ), 10α‐hydroxy‐8β‐O‐4‐chlorobenzoyl‐capnellene ( 4 ), 10α‐hydroxy‐8β‐O‐2‐furoylcapnellene ( 5 ), 10α‐hydroxy‐8β‐O‐2‐thiophenoylcapnellene ( 6 ), 10α‐hydroxy‐8β‐O‐4‐fluorobenzoylcapnellene ( 7 ), 10α‐hydroxy‐8β‐O‐4‐propylbenzoylcapnellene ( 8 ), 10α‐hydroxy‐8β‐O‐cinnamoylcapnellene ( 9 ), 10α‐hydroxy‐8β‐O‐4‐nitrobenzoylcapnellene ( 10 ), and 10α‐hydroxy‐8β‐O‐4‐anisoylcapnellene ( 11 ). The structures of capnellene‐8β, 10α‐diol as well as its derivatives were established through standard spectroscopic analysis. The in vitro cytotoxic activities of the eleven compounds were evaluated against Hela, KB, Daoy, and WiDr human tumor cell lines.     

A New 18(13 → 12β)‐abeo‐Lanostadiene Triterpenoid from Ganoderma fornicatum

A new triterpenoid, fornicatin C (= (3β)‐3‐hydroxy‐18(13 → 12β)‐abeo‐lanosta‐13(17),24‐dien‐18‐oic acid; 1 ), was isolated from the fruiting bodies of Ganoderma fornicatum, together with the known compounds fornicatin A ( 2 ) and fornicatin B ( 3 ), among other constituents. The structure of 1 was elucidated by means of spectroscopic techniques, and those of 2 and 3 were identified by comparing their spectroscopic data with those reported in the literature.     

16α,17α‐Epoxy‐20‐oxopregn‐5‐en‐3β‐yl acetate

The title compound, C₂₃H₃₂O₄, has a 3β configuration, with the epoxy O atom at 16α,17α. Rings A and C have slightly distorted chair conformations. Because of the presence of the C5=C6 double bond, ring B assumes an 8β,9α‐half‐chair conformation slightly distorted towards an 8β‐sofa. Ring D has a conformation close to a 14α‐envelope. The acetoxy and acetyl substituents are twisted with respect to the average molecular plane of the steroid. The conformation of the mol­ecule is compared with that given by a quantum chemistry calculation using the RHF–AM1 (RHF = Roothaan Hartree–Fock) Hamiltonian model. Cohesion of the crystal can be attributed to van der Waals interactions and weak intermolecular C—H?O interactions, which link the mol­ecules head‐to‐tail along [101].     

16‐(4‐Cyano­benzyl­idene)‐17‐oxo­androst‐5‐en‐3β‐ol

In the title compound, 4‐(3β‐hydroxy‐17‐oxoandrost‐5‐en‐16‐ylidenemethyl)benzonitrile, C₂₇H₃₁NO₂, rings A and C of the steroid nucleus are in chair conformations. The central six‐membered ring B is in an 8β,9α‐half‐chair conformation, while the five‐membered ring D adopts a 13β,14α‐half‐chair conformation. The cyano­benzyl­idene moiety has an E configuration with respect to the carbonyl group at position C17. The dihedral angle between the planes of the steroid nucleus and the cyano­benzyl­idene moiety is 22.61 (15)°. Intermolecular O—H⃛N hydrogen bonds formed between the hydroxyl group of the steroid and the N atom of the cyano­benzyl­idene moiety of symmetry‐related mol­ecules link the steroid mol­ecules into chains which run parallel to the b axis.     

Assignment of absolute configuration of 8α‐hydroxy‐13‐hydroperoxylabd‐14,17‐dien‐19,16;23,6α‐diolide by computed NMR chemical shifts

Unassigned configurations of 8α‐hydroxy‐13‐hydroperoxylabd‐14,17‐dien‐19,16;23,6α‐diolide, extracted from Iranian salvia, in the C13 and C16 were assigned as S and R, respectively. Extensive ab initio calculations followed by chemical shift predictions were employed in this assignment. Predicted chemical shifts were correlated to experimental ones in order to find the correct configuration, shown here. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

3β,7α,12α‐Tri­formyl­oxy‐24‐nor‐5β‐chol‐22‐ene

The title compound, alternatively called 24‐nor‐5β‐chol‐22‐ene‐3β,7α,12α‐triyl triformate, C₂₆H₃₈O₆, has a cis junction between two of the six‐membered rings. All three of the six‐membered rings have chair conformations that are slightly flattened and the five‐membered ring has a 13β,14α‐half‐chair conformation. The 3β, 7α and 12α ring substituents are axial and the 17β group is equatorial. The 3β‐formyl­oxy group is involved in one weak intermol­ecular C—H⋯O bond, which links the mol­ecules into dimers in a head‐to‐head fashion.     

1H‐Indazole and 2H‐indazole derivatives of androsta‐5,16‐dien‐3β‐ol

The title compounds, 17‐(1H‐indazol‐1‐yl)androsta‐5,16‐dien‐3β‐ol, (I), and 17‐(2H‐indazol‐2‐yl)androsta‐5,16‐dien‐3β‐ol, (II), both C₂₆H₃₂N₂O, have an indazole substituent at the C17 position. The six‐membered B ring of each compound assumes a half‐chair conformation. A twist of the steroid skeleton is observed and reproduced in quantum‐mechanical ab initio calculations of the isolated molecule using a molecular orbital Hartree–Fock method. In the 1H‐indazole derivative, (I), the molecules are joined in a head‐to‐head fashion via O—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming chains along the a axis. In the 2H‐indazole derivative, (II), the molecules are joined in a head‐to‐tail fashion with one of the N atoms of the indazole ring system acting as the acceptor. The hydrogen‐bond pattern consists of zigzag chains running along the b axis. Substituted steroids have proven to be effective in inhibiting androgen biosynthesis through coordination of the Fe atoms of some enzymes, and this study shows that indazole‐substituted steroids adopt twisted conformations that restrict their intermolecular interactions.     

具有β-(1→6)-半乳吡喃糖骨架和α-L-(1→3)-阿拉伯呋喃糖侧链的阿拉伯半乳寡糖的简易合成

4-Methoxyphenyl glycoside of β-D-Galp-(1→6)-[α-L-Araf-(1→3)-]β-D-Galp-(1→6)-β-D-Galp-(1→6)-{β-D-Galp-(1→6)-[α-L-Araf-(1→3)-]β-D-Galp-(1→6)-β-D-Galp-(1→6)-}2β-D-Galp-(1→6)-[α-L-Araf-(1→)3)-]β-D-Galp-(1→)6)-β-D-Galp was synthesized with 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzoyl-α-D-galactopyranosyl trichloroacetimidate (1), 6-O-acetyl-2,3,4-tri-O-benzoyl-α-D-galactopyranosyl trichloroacetimidate (11), 4-methoxyphenyl 3-O-allyl-2,4-tri-O-benzoyl-β-D-galactopyranoside (2),isopropyl 3-O-allyl-2,4-tri-O-benzoyl--thio-β-D-galactopyranoside (12),4-methoxyphenyl 2,3,4-tri-O-benzoyl-β-D-galactopyranoside (5), and 2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-α-L-arabinofuranosyl trichloroacetimidate (8) as the key synthons.     

1,3‐Dipolar Cycloaddition Reactions Leading to the Synthesis of New 2,3,5‐Triaryl‐4H,2,3,3a,5,6,6a‐hexahydropyrrolo[3,4‐d]isoxazole‐4,6‐diones

Cycloaddition of C,N‐diphenylnitrones 1 to N‐aryl maleimides 2 afforded two diastereomeric isoxazolidines with high selectivity. The structure and steric configuration of the adducts have been assigned on the basis of ¹H NMR, ¹H NMR COSY, ¹³C NMR and IR spectroscopy. The π–π stacking interactions between maleimide's and nitrone's aromatic rings during the 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition were assumed to control the exo–endo selectivity of the reaction. Thus, the exo–endo ratio depends upon the position of the substituent present on the C‐phenyl ring of the C,N‐diphenylnitrones.
