Synthesis of the sedum and related alkaloids: A personal perspective

Significant recent contributions to the synthesis of the sedum alkaloids are discussed. Related compounds, such as pinidinol, porantheridine, dumetorine and the tetraponerines are also included. The syntheses are categorised according to the key motif or chemistry employed: isoxazolidines, metathesis, asymmetric aza-Michael, heterocycle lithiation, organocatalysis, aromatic heterocycles and chiral imines.     

Simultaneous determination of eight flavonoids in Sedum sarmentosum Bunge from different areas by UHPLC with triple quadrupole MS/MS

Sedum sarmentosum Bunge (SSB) is a traditional Chinese herbal medicine containing multiple components that has been extensively used clinically to treat chronic viral hepatitis and some inflammatory diseases. Total flavonoids are major pharmacologically active components of SSB. To gain a deeper understanding of SSB resources, we analyzed eight chemical constituents in 33 batches of SSB from 11 regions in China. An accurate, precise and sensitive ultra‐high‐performance liquid chromatography coupled with triple quadrupole electrospray tandem mass spectrometry method was developed for the determination of eight flavonoids in SSB. Under the optimized chromatographic conditions, good separation for the eight target components was obtained on an Agilent Zobax SB C₁₈ (50 × 2.1 mm, 5 μm) column within 4 min. The established methods were validated with good linearity (r ≥ 0.9988), precision (RSD ≤ 2.68%), stability (1.43–3.28%) and repeatability (1.14–2.89%). Moreover, the average recoveries were 95.91–100.68%, and the RSDs were 1.50–3.80%. In addition, the analytical conditions of UPLC–ESI–MS/MS provided better sensitivity with a shorter analysis time when compared with the HPLC–DAD method. Hierarchical clustering analysis and principal component analysis were performed to estimate and classify these samples based on the contents of the eight chemical constituents. This study provided the theoretical basis and scientific evidence for the development and utilization of SSB resources.     

Novel megastigmanes with lipid accumulation inhibitory and lipid metabolism-promoting activities in HepG2 cells from Sedum sarmentosum

Four novel megastigmanes, neosedumosides I (1), II (2), III (3), and IV (4) were isolated from the whole plant of Sedum sarmentosum (Crassulaceae). Absolute stereostructures of these constituents were determined on the basis of chemical and physicochemical evidence. Among them, 1-3 were found to show lipid accumulation inhibitory activity in HepG2 cells. Furthermore, 2 and 3 were found to also show lipid metabolism-promoting activity.
