麻叶千里光挥发油抗病毒活性及成分分析

利用体外细胞病变效应(CPE)法,发现菊科千里光属植物麻叶千里光(Senecio cannabifoliusLess.)挥发油对呼吸道合胞病毒(RSV)和单纯疱疹病毒Ⅰ型(HSV-Ⅰ)致HeLa细胞病变有显著的抑制作用,能不同程度地延缓副流感病毒、柯萨奇病毒B3、腺病毒Ⅲ型和流感病毒致细胞病变作用。为进一步确定麻叶千里光挥发油抗病毒的活性成分,经气相色谱-质谱联用技术对其进行了成分分析。麻叶千里光挥发油得率0.22%(mL/100g),从中初步鉴定了26种化合物,占挥发油总量的88.47%,主要为正十六(烷)酸(27.01%)、胡萝卜次醇(13.73%)、9,12-十八碳二烯酸(9.99%)、α-蒎烯(9.28%)和β-蒎烯(5.58%)。在鉴定出的化合物中,萜烯占47.42%,脂肪酸类占37.61%,其它成分仅占3.44%,故提示麻叶千里光挥发油中高含量的萜烯和脂肪酸类可能与其抗病毒活性有关。     

Complete 1H NMR assignments of pyrrolizidine alkaloids and a new eudesmanoid from Senecio polypodioides

Chemical investigation of the aerial parts of Senecio polypodioides lead to the isolation of the new eudesmanoid 1β‐angeloyloxyeudesm‐7‐ene‐4β,9α‐diol ( 1 ) and the known dirhamnosyl flavonoid lespidin ( 3 ), while from roots, the known 7β‐angeloyloxy‐1‐methylene‐8α‐pyrrolizidine ( 5 ) and sarracine N‐oxide ( 6 ), as well as the new neosarracine N‐oxide ( 8 ), were obtained. The structure of 1 and 8 was elucidated by spectral means. Complete assignments of the ¹H NMR data for 5 , 6 , sarracine ( 7 ), and 8 were made using one‐dimensional and two‐dimensional NMR experiments and by application of the iterative full spin analysis of the PERCH NMR software.

ICP-AES法研究葎草叶中微量元素对大气活性氮浓度的响应

在实测数据的基础上,分析大气活性氮对野生植物葎草(Humulus scandens)中微量元素含量的影响.采集华北平原北京周边6个地点的葎草,利用等离子体原子发射光谱技术(ICP-AES)分析植物叶中Ca,Mg,S,Fe,Mn,Cu,zn,B和Na的含量.结果表明,葎草叶中各元素的平均含量由高剑低依次为Ca(41 106)>S(8 370)>Mg(6 628)>Fe(476)>Na(92)>B(78)>Mn(49)>Zn(38)>Cu(15)mg·kg~(-1)干重;不同大气活性氮浓度下葎草叶中微量元素含虽没有显著差异:说明大气活性氮施肥效应造成的葎草对这些元素需求量的增加,并未超过当地土壤营养元素的供应能力.该实验结果将为研究全球大气氮沉降增加背景下,陆生草本植物的中微量元素营养状况提供科学参考.     

Methyl Pothoscandensate,a New ent‐18(4→3)‐Abeokaurane from Pothos scandens

Methyl pothoscandensate ( 1 ), a new molecular skeleton of ent‐18(4→3)‐abeokaurane, along with eight known compounds was isolated from the whole plant of Pothos scandens. The structure of the new compound was established by spectroscopic techniques and confirmed by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. The inhibitory activity of selected compounds against porcine respiratory and reproductive syndrome virus (PRRSV) was measured by the cytopathic effect (CPE) method. Compound 1 showed weak effect on PRRSV with an IC₅₀ value of 40.3±8.3 μM (TI=15.7).     

Nutritional composition,antioxidant activity and isolation of scopoletin from Senecio nutans: support of ancestral and new uses

Continuing with our study characterising Senecio nutans Sch. Bip., we have isolated and identified a simple coumarin, scopoletin, that could be relevant for the biological properties of the species related with the ancestral medical uses. This is the first report of scopoletin from S. nutans. In addition, the extract was analysed for its antioxidant activity using the ABTS and FRAP method as well as providing the first nutritional analyses of this plant from northern Chile highlands.     

A New Eremophilanoid Sesquiterpene from Senecio oldhamianus

A new Eremophilanoid sesquiterpene(1) was isolated from the whole plant of Senecio oldhaminus. Its structure was elucidated as 7β,11-epoxy-9α,10α-epoxy-8-oxoeremophilane using spectroscopic methords and X-ray analysis.     

Saluenolide A,A Novel Eremophilanolide from Senecio saluenensis

From Senecio saluenensis, a novel eremophilanolide Saluenolide A was isolated. Its structure was elucidated by 2D-NMR technique and X-ray diffraction.     

Senedensiscins A–F: six new eudesmane sesquiterpenoid glucosides from Senecio densiserratus

Six new highly oxygenated eudesmane sesquiterpenoid glucosides, senedensiscins A–F (1–6), were isolated from the aerial parts of Senecio densiserratus. Their structures with the absolute configurations were established on the basis of spectroscopic analyses and chemical methods. These compounds represent an unprecedented type of sesquiterpenoid glucoside with the angeloyl group directly connected to the glucosyl moiety and their cytotoxicity was evaluated against the selected human cell lines, HL-60, SMMC-7721, and HeLa.     

Revisiting the absolute chirality and polymorphism of (–)‐Istanbulin A

The terpenoid (?)‐Istanbulin A is a natural product isolated from Senecio filaginoides DC, one of the 270 species of Senecio (Asteraceae) which occurs in Argentina. The structure and absolute configuration of this compound [9a‐hydroxy‐3,4a,5‐trimethyl‐4a,6,7,8a,9,9a‐hexahydro‐4H,5H‐naphtho[2,3‐b]‐furan‐2,8‐dione or (4S,5R,8R,10S)‐1‐oxo‐8β‐hydroxy‐10βH‐eremophil‐7(11)‐en‐12,8β‐olide, C₁₅H₂₀O₄] were determined by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction studies. It proved to be a sesquiterpene lactone showing an eremophilanolide skeleton whose chirality is described as 4S,5R,8R,10S. Structural results were also in agreement with the one‐ and two‐dimensional (1D and 2D) NMR and HR–ESI–MS data, and other complementary spectroscopic information. In addition, (?)‐Istanbulin A is a polymorph of the previously reported form of (?)‐Istanbulin A, form I; thus, the title compound is denoted form II or polymorph II. Structural data and a literature search allowed the chirality of Istanbulin A to be revisited. The antimicrobial and antifungal activities of (?)‐Istanbulin A, form II, were evaluated in order to establish a reference for future comparisons and applications related to specific crystal forms of Istanbulins.
