Valeridoids G - Q, Eleven seco-Iridoids from Valeriana jatamansi and Their Bioactivites.

ABSTRACT

Eleven new seco-iridoids, valeridoids G-Q (1-6 and 8-12), along with four known products, 9-epi-valtral C (7), desacylbaldrinal (13), 11-methoxyviburtinal (14) and baldrinal (15), were obtained from Valeriana jatamansi. Among them, the new compounds were identified by their NMR, HR-ESI-MS spectroscopic data and ECD calculation. Moreover, valeridoid N and O were a pair of C3 epimers, whose ether bonds between C-1 and C-3 opened, and new ether bonds formed between C-3 and C-6. Valeridoid Q belonged to the C-1 degradation of seco-iridoids. As a result, 9-epi-valtral C displayed significant inhibition on Streptococcus agalactiae, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus argenteus, Shigella flexneri and Klebsiella pneumoniae, and valeridoid Q exhibited the most significant inhibition against Salmonella enteritidis. 9-Epi-valtral C and baldrinal selectively inhibited the growth of human glioma stem cells. Valeridoid Q exhibited significant anti-influenza activity, while valeridoid O inhibited nitric oxide production.
