ABSTRACT
Objective: To investigate the chemical constituents from Re-Du-Ning Injection (RDN). Methods: The chemical constituents were isolated by chromatography on silica gel, ODS, Sephadex LH-20, and Toyopearl HW-40 columns and reverse phase MPLC and HPLC repeatedly. Their structures were identified by spectral data and physicochemical property. Results: Sixteen compounds were isolated and identified as 5-O-caffeoylquinic acid (1), 5-O-caffeoylquinic acid methyl ester (2), 4-O-caffeoylquinic acid (3), 5-O-caffeoylquinic acid methyl ester (4), 4,5-di-O-caffeoylquinic acid (5), 4,5-di-O-caffeoylquinic acid methyl ester (6), 3,5- di-O-caffeoylquinic acid (7), 3,5-di-O-caffeoylquinic acid methyl ester (8), 3,4-di-O-caffeoylquinic acid (9), 3,4-di-O-caffeoylquinic acid methyl ester (10), secologanic acid (11), vogeloside (12), 7-epi-vogeloside (13), E-aldosecologanin (14), Z-aldosecologanin (15), and 5H,8H-pyrano[4,3-d] thiazolo[3,2-a] pyridine-3-carboxylic acid (16). Compounds 1-10 showed high efficiency and low toxicity with antivirus activity against RSV. Conclusion: All the isolated compounds are reported from RDN Injection for the first time, and caffeoylquinic acids may be one of antivirus pharmacodynamic material bases of RDN.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the constituents in water-extracts from Flos Lonicerae. Methods Compounds were isolated and purified by using various column chromatography such as D101, Sephadex LH-20, and silica gel, etc. Their structures were identified on the basis of physical and spectral data. Results Seven secoiridoid glycosides were obtained and identified as vogeloside (Ⅰ), 7-epi-vogeloside (Ⅱ), secologanic acid (Ⅲ), sweroside (Ⅳ), secoxyloganin (Ⅴ), secologanoside (Ⅵ), (E)-aldosecologanin (Ⅶ). Conclusion Among them, compounds Ⅲ and Ⅵ are firstly obtained from the plants in Lonicera L. The structure of compound Ⅶ is rare in nature so far.
