RESUMEN
One novel compound, (R)-3, 6-diethoxy-4-hydroxycyclohex-3-en-1-one (1) and thirteen known compounds were isolated from the waste tobacco leaves. The structures of two compounds (1-2) were confirmed and attributed firstly by the extensive spectroscopic data, including 1D/2D NMR, IR, HR-ESI-MS, CD, and ECD spectra. Notably, seven compounds (2, 3, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13) exhibited better tyrosinase inhibitory activity than the positive control kojic acid. The binding modes of these compounds revealed that their structure formed strong hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces with the active sites of tyrosinase. These results indicated that waste tobacco leaves are good resources for developing tyrosinase inhibitors.

Three new compounds, including two new sesquiterpenes (1-2), named Annuumine E-F, and one new natural product, 3-hydroxy-2,6-dimethylbenzenemethanol (3), together with seventeen known compounds (4-20) were isolated from the ethanol extract of the roots of Capsicum annuum L. Among them, five compounds (4, 5, 9, 10 and 20) were isolated from this plant for the first time. The structures of new compounds (1-3) were determined via detailed analysis of the IR, HR-ESI-MS and 1D and 2D NMR spectra. The anti-inflammatory activities of the isolated compounds were evaluated by their ability to reduce NO release by LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells. Notably, compound 11 exhibited moderate anti-inflammatory activity (IC50 =21.11â µM). Moreover, the antibacterial activities of the isolated compounds were also evaluated.

Four new pentacyclic triterpenoids named Sabiadiscolor A-D (1 and 7-9) together with eleven known ones were isolated by repeated column chromatography. Their structures were identified and characterized by NMR and MS spectral data as 6 oleanane-type pentacyclic triterpenoids (1-6), 7 ursane-type ones (7-13), and 2 lupanane-type ones (14-15). Except for compound 15, all other compounds were isolated from Sabia discolor Dunn for the first time. Their α-glycosidase inhibitory activities were evaluated, which showed that compounds 1, 3, 8, 9, 13, and 15 implied remarkable activities with IC50 values ranging from 0.09 to 0.27 µM, and the preliminary structure-activity relationship was discussed.

To scientifically clarify the hepatoprotective constituents of Fructus Schizandrae chinensis, eleven batches samples of total dibenzocyclooctadiene lignans (TDL) from Schisandra chinensis were prepared by using the optimum extraction technique. Characteristic high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) chromatograms were obtained through HPLC analysis technology, and the hepatoprotective effects of the eleven batches of TDL were evaluated by MTT assay. Based on the chemical and biological activity results, the spectrum-effect relationship between the characteristic HPLC fingerprints and the hepatoprotective effect of TDL was established using Minitab 16.0 data analysis software. On the basis of the spectrum-effect relationship, thirteen compounds (1-13) were obtained from the TDL by chemical natural product chemical separation and purification technology, and their structures were identified on the basis of the spectral data and the literature. Based on these compounds, thirteen common peaks among the thirty-three chromatographic peaks in the above HPLC fingerprints were identified. Our findings showed that some components, including, schisandrin B (2), schisandrin A (3), and schisandrol B (7) had significant roles in promoting hepatoprotective activity. Preliminary verification of the spectrum-effect relationship of TDL from S. chinensis was carried out, and the results confirmed that the activity of a composite of these three key components in optimal ratios was better than that of any individual compound, which potentially confirmed the reliability of the spectrum-effect relationship and the synergistic effects of traditional Chinese medicine.

The halogenated and oxidized derivatives (1a-1e, 1a'-1c', 2a-2d, 2a'-2b', 3a-3e, 3' and 3a'-3b') of schizandrin (1), schizandrin B (2) and schisanhenol (3) were synthesized. The hepatoprotective effects of these dibenzocyclooctadiene lignan analogues against CCl4-induced injury were preliminarily evaluated. Most of the analogues exhibited higher protective effects than the positive control biphenyldicarboxylate (DDB). Among these active analogues, dichloroschisanhenol (3a) exhibited the strongest protective activity (cell survival rate exceeding 98.0%).

RESUMEN
To investigate their cytotoxicity, seventeen C21-steroidal pregnane sapogenins 1-17 were isolated from the hydrolytic extracts of the roots of Cynanchum wilfordii. Among them, sapogenins 1-7 are new compounds, whose structures were determined by extensive analysis of spectroscopic data and X-ray crystallographic analysis. Especially, sapogenins with salicyl or vanilloyl group, and a new aberrant pregnane skeleton with ether linkage between C-12 and C-20 were found for the first time. Compound 1 revealed significant cytotoxicities on HL-60 (IC50 6.72µM) and MCF-7 (IC50 2.89µM), and compounds 14 and 15 also revealed strong inhibitory activities against K-562 (IC50 6.72µM) or MCF-7 (IC50 2.49µM), respectively.

Schisanhenol (Sol) was isolated from Schisandra rubriflora, and a series of derivatives (1-16, 15a-16a, and 15b-16b) were designed and prepared by chemical modification. The curative and protective effects of these dibenzocyclooctadiene lignan analogues against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) were evaluated. Most analogues exhibited stronger protective effects than the positive control ningnanmycin. Dibromoschisanhenol (6) at 0.25mM exhibited the strongest protective activity (83.5±1.8% at 0.25mM), and 14-(3, 5-dibenzyloxy)-benzoyloxyschisanhenol (16) showed a significant curative effect (78.0±3.8% at 0.15mM) that was much stronger than that of the commercial virucide ningnanmycin. This study is the first to demonstrate that natural dibenzocyclooctadiene lignans and analogues are active against plant viruses.

Fifteen new seco-pregnane steroidal glycosides cynanosides A-O (1-15) together with twenty-seven known ones were isolated from the roots of Cynanchum atratum. The structures of 1-15 were determined by extensive analysis of spectroscopic data. The anti-tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) activity of these steroidal glycosides was screened by the conventional half-leaf method, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and Western blot methods, most of them showed potent anti-TMV activity. Among them, compounds 1, 7, 13, 28 and 31 showed significantly anti-TMV activity with an IC50 value of 20.5, 18.6, 22.0, 19.2 and 22.2 µg/mL, respectively, and were much more effective than the positive control, ningnanmycin (IC50=49.6 µg/mL).
