RESUMO
Five new diterpenes, including an unprecedented 5,5,6,6,5-pentacyclic diterpene, sponalactone (1), two new spongian diterpenes, 17- O-acetylepispongiatriol (2) and 17- O-acetylspongiatriol (3), and two new spongian diterpene artifacts, 15α,16α-dimethoxy-15,16-dihydroepispongiatriol (4) and 15α-ethoxyepispongiatriol-16(15 H)-one (5), were isolated from a South China Sea collection of the marine sponge Spongia officinalis, together with three known analogues (6-8). The structures of the new diterpenes were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis. The absolute configurations were established on the basis of ECD data. Compounds 1-5 and 7 exhibited moderate inhibition against LPS-induced NO production in RAW264.7 macrophages with IC50 values of 12-32 µM.

Two new compounds, including a diterpenoid glycoside (1) and a triterpenoid glycoside (6), along with six known compounds were isolated from Clinopodium chinense. The structures of the new compounds were determined on basis of extensive spectral analysis and chemical method. Compounds 1-8 were evaluated for their insulin resistance effect and cytotoxic activity against the A549 and HepG2 cancer cell lines. None of the compounds were cytotoxic (IC50 > 100 µM), while compounds 1-3 and 5 showed the activity of ameliorating insulin resistance in HepG2.
