Abstract
Seven undescribed compounds (1–2, 7, 14 and 25–27), and twenty-three known compounds (3–6, 8–13, 15–24 and 28–30) were isolated using multidimensional preparative chromatography from supercritical fluid extracts of Tripterygium wilfordii Hook. f., comprising two sesquiterpenoid macrolide alkaloids, two diterpenoids, and three triterpenoid compounds. Their structures were elucidated using a comprehensive analysis of NMR spectroscopic data and by comparing the experimental and calculated ECD data. Furthermore, the absolute stereochemistry of compound 2 was unambiguously confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The inhibitory activities of the isolated compounds on ATP citrate lyase were systematically evaluated. Compounds 19, 24, 25, 26 and 28 exhibited notable inhibitory effects, with compound 19 displaying an IC50 value of 0.44 ± 0.04 μM.
期刊介绍:
Phytochemistry is a leading international journal publishing studies of plant chemistry, biochemistry, molecular biology and genetics, structure and bioactivities of phytochemicals, including ''-omics'' and bioinformatics/computational biology approaches. Phytochemistry is a primary source for papers dealing with phytochemicals, especially reports concerning their biosynthesis, regulation, and biological properties both in planta and as bioactive principles. Articles are published online as soon as possible as Articles-in-Press and in 12 volumes per year. Occasional topic-focussed special issues are published composed of papers from invited authors.
