Structures of 1,4-benzodioxane derivatives from the seeds of Phytolacca americana and their neuritogenic activity in primary cultured rat cortical neurons

The methanol extract of the seeds of Phytolacca americana was reinvestigated to yield three new 1,4-benzodioxane-type compounds, americanoic acid methyl ester (1), isoamericanoic acid A methyl ester (2), and 9'-O-methylamericanol A (3) along with the previously isolated neolignans 6-9.

The α-hydroxy and α-carboxy groups of citrate and malate chelate in five-membered ring with one lanthanide ion, while one of the β-carboxy group coordinates with the other lanthanide ion, forming a dimeric structure. The other pendent β-carboxy groups in 1-3 form very strong intramolecular hydrogen bond with α-hydroxy groups [O1O7 2.594(4), 2.587(8) and 2.57(1) ? for 1-3 respectively]. (13)C NMR spectra of the lanthanum compounds show obvious downfield shifts based on solid and solution NMR measurements, indicating the coordinations of mixed-ligand in lanthanum complexes, while highfield shifts are observed in cerium complexes.
