RESUMO
Hyperacmotone A, a polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinol (PPAP) with an unprecedented skeleton, along with five undescribed congeners and eleven reported ones, was isolated from Hypericum acmosepalum. Hyperacmotone A possesses a unique monocyclic ring skeleton based on a cyclopent-4-ene-1,3-dione acylphloroglucinol core. Their structures were elucidated by extensive analysis of HRESIMS, NMR, biogenetic pathway, and quantum-chemical calculations. In addition, hypercohone G exhibited significant protective effects on high-glucose-injured HUVECs.

Acmoxanthones A-E (1-5), five new lavandulylated xanthones, were isolated from the aerial parts of Hypericum acmosepalum, together with four known xanthones. Their structures with absolute configurations were elucidated on the basis of analysis of MS, NMR and chiroptical properties. A bioassay against high glucose-induced damage on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) showed ananixanthone (6) and osajaxanthone (7) had potential antioxidative damage activity with EC50 values of 10.5 µg/mL and 7.6 µg/mL, respectively, while 3-hydroxy-2,4-dimethoxyxanthone (8) exhibited cytotoxic effect on the damaged cells with IC50 values of 7.1 µg/mL.

Uralins A - D, four undescribed polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols (PPAPs) featuring an unprecedented fused hexacyclic architecture, a unique monocyclic tetra-seco-tetranor-b-PPAP, an oxidative b-PPAP and a rare norspiroindane-type m-PPAP, respectively, were isolated from the aerial parts of Hypericum uralum, along with ten known PPAPs. Their structures and absolute configurations were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic techniques (MS, NMR, [α]D, CD), conceivable biogenetic pathways and time-dependent density functional theory-based electronic circular dichroism (TDDFT-ECD) calculations. Biological assays showed three b-PPAPs had moderate antioxidative damage activities, while spiroindanes exhibited moderate cytotoxic effects.
