Two New Diterpene Alkaloids from the Roots of Spiraea japonica var. Acuta

Spiraea japonica L. (Rosaceae) is widely distributed in Yunnan Provence, P. R. China. Previous chemical investigations on S. japonica and its varieties have led to the report of 7 new atisane-type diterpenoids and 38 new diterpene alkaloids of atisine- and hetisine-type1-11. This paper describes the isolation and structure elucidation of two new diterpene alkaloids named spiratines A and B (1-2). Their structures were elucidated on the basis of 1D and 2D NMR experiments (HMQC, HMBC, 1…

A New Megastigmane Glucoside and Three New Flavonoid Glycosides from Spiraea prunifolia var. simpliciflora

A new megastigmane glucoside, simplicifloranoside ( 1 ), and three new flavonol glycosides, prunifolianosides A–C ( 2 – 4 , resp.), were isolated from the aerial parts of Spiraea prunifolia var. simpliciflora. In addition, fifteen known compounds, including five phenolic acids, three lignans, four flavonoids, one eugenol glycoside, and two alkyl‐primeverosides, were also identified. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of detailed spectroscopic analyses and acid hydrolysis.

Optimization of Ultrasonic-Assisted Extraction of Total Flavonoids from Abrus Cantoniensis (Abriherba) by Response Surface Methodology and Evaluation of Its Anti-Inflammatory Effect

Abrus cantoniensis is a Chinese herbal medicine with efficacy in clearing heat and detoxification, as well as relieving liver pain. The whole plant, except the seeds, can be used and consumed. Flavonoids have been found in modern pharmacological studies to have important biological activities, such as anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antioxidant properties. The antibacterial and antioxidant bioactivities of the total flavonoids of Abrus cantoniensis (ATF) have been widely reported in national and international journals, but there are fewer studies on their anti-inflammatory effects. The present study focused on the optimization of the ultrasonic extraction process of ATF by response surface methodology and the study of its anti-inflammatory effects in vitro and in vivo. The results showed that the factors that had a great impact on the ATF extraction were the material-to-liquid ratio, ultrasonic extraction cycles and ethanol concentration. The best extraction process used a material-to-liquid ratio of 1:47, ultrasonic extraction cycles of 4 times, an ethanol concentration of 50%, an ultrasonic extraction time of 40 min and an ultrasonic power of 125 W. Under these conditions, the actual extraction rate of total flavonoids was 3.68%, which was not significantly different from the predicted value of 3.71%. In an in vitro anti-inflammatory assay, ATF was found to be effective in alleviating LPS (lipopolysaccharide)-induced inflammation in mouse peritoneal macrophages. In an in vivo anti-inflammatory assay, ATF was found to have a significant inhibitory effect on xylene-induced ear swelling in mice and cotton ball granuloma in mice, and the inhibitory effect was close to that of the positive control drug dexamethasone. This may provide a theoretical basis for the further development of the medicinal value of Abrus cantoniensis.     

Flavonoid Constituents from Spiraea brahuica

Sparins A–C ( 1 – 3 , resp.), three new flavonoids, were isolated from the CHCl₃ subfraction of the EtOH extract of the whole plant of Spiraea brahuica, along with 3′,7‐di‐O‐methylquercetin ( 4 ) and luteolin 7‐β‐D ‐glucopyranoside ( 5 ), reported for the first time from this species. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by spectroscopic techniques including MS and 2D‐NMR spectroscopy.

Anticorrosive property of Spiraea Cantoniensisis extract as an eco-friendly inhibitor on mild steel surface in acid medium

Abstract

The inhibitive performance of methanolic extract of eco-friendly green inhibitor Spiraea cantoniensis (S. cantoniensis) on inhibiting corrosion of mild steel (MS) in 1?M HCl was studied by weight loss, AC-impedance, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Raman, x-ray diffraction (XRD), ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis), atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis. The results showed that the corrosion rate significantly decreased in the presence of the S. cantoniensis inhibitor with a gradual increase in inhibition efficiency at an increased inhibitor concentration. The temperature studies were conducted which included activation energy (E_a), change in enthalpy (ΔH°_ads), change in entropy (ΔS°_ads), change in free energy (ΔG°_ads) and heat of adsorption (Q_ads). These calculations were helpful to determine the reaction mechanism and proved it as a physisorption type following the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The analysis of the protective film using FT-IR, Raman, XRD, and SEM analysis clearly showed the potentiality of S. cantoniensis in blocking the MS surface to prevent corrosion by 1?M HCl. The solution analysis via AAS and UV-Vis showed the inhibitive effect of the inhibitor (S. cantoniensis) in both inhibitive and the uninhibitive solution exhibiting the adsorption of the phytochemical molecules on the MS surface.
