Antihepatitis B virus constituents of Solanum erianthum

Eleven compounds were isolated from the methanolic extract of the leaves of Solanum erianthum D. Don, including five alpha-linolenic acid analogs, alpha-linolenic acid (1), 13S-hydroxy-9(Z),11(E)-octadecadienoic acid (2), 9S-hydroxy-10(E),12(Z), 15(Z)-octadectrienoic acid (3), 9(Z),11(E)-octadecadienoic acid (4), and octadecanoic acid (5); two benzofuran-type lactones, loliolide (6) and dihydroactinidiolide (7); two steroidal alkaloids, solasonine (8) and solamargine (9); a flavonol glycoside, camelliaside C (10); and a flavone, 5-methoxy-(3,4"-dihydro-3",4"-diacetoxy)-2",2'-dimethylpyrano-(7,8:5",6")-flavone (11). Among these isolated compounds, 9 showed the most potent activity against HBsAg, with an IC50 of 1.57 microM, followed by 8 (IC50 is 5.89 microM). In the testing against HBeAg, 11 was the only active compound with an IC50 of 36.11 microM. Compound 9 also revealed strong inhibition of DNA replication towards HBV and its IC50 was 2.17 microM. However, alpha-linolenic acid (1) showed a prominent selected index (SI), both in anti-HBsAg and inhibition of DNA replication with SI values of 7.75 and 7.18, respectively. This is the first report that unsaturated fatty acid 1, steroidal alkaloid glycoside 9 and flavone 11, all showed excellent activity against HBV. These results provide lead candidates in the development of anti-HBV drugs from natural sources.

An efficient approach has been developed for the synthesis of naturally occurring prenylated chalcones viz. kanzonol C(1), stipulin(2), crotaorixin(3), medicagenin(4), licoagrochalcone A(5) and abyssinone D(6) along with the pyranochalcones paratocarpin C(7), anthyllisone(8) and 3-O-methylabyssinone A(9).The key step of the synthesis is a Claisen–Schmidt condensation.
