RESUMO
Four previously undescribed compounds named phyllancosides A and B (1 and 2), and phyllancochines A and B (3 and 4) together with ten known compounds (5-14) were isolated from the aerial parts of Phyllanthus cochinchinensis Spreng. Their chemical structures were elucidated on the basis of comprehensive analysis of IR, HR-ESI-MS, 1D and 2D NMR spectra. The absolute configurations of 1 and 2 were determined by electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra. Compounds 3, 4, and 10 showed antimicrobial activity against E. faecalis, S. aureus, and B. cereus with the MIC values in range of 32-256â µg/mL. Compound 11 inhibited E. faecalis and B. cereus, and 7 inhibited S. aureus with the MIC values in range of 64-128â µg/mL. In addition, compounds 1, 3, 4, 8, and 9 showed significantly NO production inhibitory activity in LPS activated RAW 264.7 cells with IC50 values ranging from 36.57 to 56.34â µM.

Phytochemical study on the methanol extract of the stems of Tinospora crispa (L.) Hook.f. & Thomson led to the isolation of thirteen compounds including three undescribed cis-clerodane-type furanoditerpenoids (1-3) and ten known ones (4-13). Their chemical structures were determined by IR, HR-ESI-MS, 1D-, and 2D-NMR spectra. Compounds 2-6 and 8 inhibited moderately NO production in LPS activated RAW 264.7 cell with the IC50 values of 83.5, 57.6, 75.3, 78.1, and 74.7 µM, respectively.

Aphanapolystachones A-C (1-3), three undescribed sesquiterpene-diterpene heterodimers, were obtained from the fruits of Aphanamixis polystachya. Their structures and absolute configurations were identified by extensive analysis of HR-ESI-MS, NMR, experimental and TD-DFT calculated ECD spectra. The biosynthetic pathway of them was also proposed, which is produced by key intermolecular Diels-Alder [4 + 2]-cycloaddition reaction between a guaiane sesquiterpene and an acyclic diterpene. Compounds 1-3 inhibited NO production in LPS activated RAW 264.7 cells with the IC50 values of 1.7 ± 0.2, 3.0 ± 0.3, 5.3 ± 0.3 µM, respectively, lower than that of the positive control L-NMMA (31.5 ± 2.6 µM). In addition, compounds 1-3 significantly reduced IL-6 secretion at diluted concentration of 0.4 µM.

A phytochemical study of the aerial parts of Piper mutabile C. DC. revealed seven undescribed compounds [two (2-7')-neolignans and five polyoxygenated cyclohexene glycosides] and six known propenylcatechol derivatives. The chemical structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated by extensive HR-ESI-MS and NMR analyses, as well as comparison with the literature. The absolute configurations of the (2-7')-neolignans were confirmed by GIAO 13C NMR calculations with a sorted training set strategy and TD-DFT calculation ECD spectra. The (2-7')-neolignans and polyoxygenated cyclohexene glycosides are unusual in natural sources. Undescribed neolignans 1 and 2 inhibited NO production in RAW 264.7 cells, with respective IC50 values of 14.4 and 9.5 µM.

Phytochemical studies on Aphanamixis plants have attracted considerable attention over the past few decades due to the structural diversities and significant biological activities of terpenoids produced by these plants. In the present study, five new acyclic diterpene lactone derivatives, aphanamixionolides A-E (1-5), and three known tirucallane-type triterpenes, namely, piscidinol A (6), hispidone (7), and bourjotinolone A (8), were isolated from the leaves of Aphanamixis polystachya. Their structures were elucidated by comprehensive analyses of HR-ESI-MS and NMR spectroscopic data and by comparison with those reported in the literature. Absolute configurations of the new compounds were determined by experimental and TD-DFT calculated ECD spectra. Compounds 1-8 inhibited NO production with IC50 values of 10.2-37.7 µM, which are comparable to positive control l-NMMA (IC50: 31.5 µM).
RESUMO
In this study, seven new pentacyclic triterpene glycosides, named dendrocinaosides A-G (1-7), and six known ones (8-13) were isolated from the whole plants of Dendrobium officinale. Their structures were determined by analyses of HR-ESI-MS, 1D and 2D NMR spectra. Compounds 1-4, 8, and 9 potentially inhibited α-glucosidase and α-amylase activities with the IC50 values ranging from 31.3 ± 2.2 to 42.4 ± 2.5 µM for anti α-glucosidase and from 36.5 ± 1.8 to 56.4 ± 2.0 µM for anti α-amylase activities, respectively, which were lower than that of the positive control, acarbose, showing IC50 values of 47.1 ± 1.4 µM for anti α-glucosidase and 145.7 ± 2.2 µM for anti α-amylase.
