A New Flavonoid Ketohexofuranoside from Leaves of Crataegus pinnatifida Bge.var. major N.E.Br.

Crataegus pinnatifida Bge.var.major N.E.Br. is widely distributed in the northeast part of China. It is used as a medicinal plant to improve digestion, remove retention of food, promote blood circulation and resolve blood stasis both in traditional and folk medicine 1. Preparations of Crataegus leaves improve the heart function, the coronary blood supply and arrhythmia2. Up to now, fifty flavonoids have been isolated from Crataegus3,4. In our previous paper, some new flavonoid glycosides we…

A New Peroxy‐multiflorane Triterpene Ester from the Processed Seeds of Trichosanthes kirilowii

A new peroxy‐multiflorane triterpene ester, (3α,5α,8α,20α)‐5,8‐epidioxymultiflora‐6,9(11)‐diene‐3,29‐diol 3,29‐dibenzoate ( 1 ), was isolated from the processed seeds of Trichosanthes kirilowii, together with the two known related derivatives 2 and 3 , and the two known steroids 4 and 5 . Compounds 2, 4 , and 5 were isolated from the genus Trichosanthes for the first time. The structure of compound 1 was established by NMR, HR‐MS, and CD analyses. Compounds 1 – 3 were tested for their in vitro cytotoxicity against human‐tumor cell lines (Hela, HL‐60, and MCF‐7) and anti‐inflammatory activity (LPS‐induced B lymphocyte cells) with the MTT method.     

Determination of Triterpenoids and Phenolic Acids from Sanguisorba officinalis L. by HPLC-ELSD and Its Application

A novel analytical method involving high-performance liquid chromatography with evaporative light scattering detection (HPLC-ELSD) was developed for simultaneous determination of 11 phenolic acids and 12 triterpenes in Sanguisorba officinalis L. Chromatographic separation was conducted with gradient elution mode by using a Diamonsil^TM C₁₈ column (250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 μm) with the mobile phase of 0.1% acetic acid water (A) and methanol (B). The drift tube temperature of ELSD was set at 70 °C and the nitrogen cumulative flow rate was 1.6 L/min. The method was fully validated to be linear over a wide concentration range (R² ≥ 0.9991). The precisions (RSD) were less than 3.0% and the recoveries were between 97.7% and 101.4% for all compounds. The results indicated that this method is accurate and effective for the determination of 23 functional components in Sanguisorba officinalis L. and could also be successfully applied to study the influence of processing method on those functional components in Sanguisorba officinalis L.
