Abstract Two new iridoids were isolated and identified to three known ones, namely, loganic acid (2), sweroside (3), and 7-O-tigloylsecologanol (4), from the stems of Viburnum erosum. Dried stems of V. erosum were extracted with 80% methanol (MeOH), and the concentrated extract was partitioned successively with ethyl acetate (EtOAc), n-butyl alcohol (n-BuOH), and H2O. Five compounds were isolated after repeated silica gel (SiO2), octadecyl SiO2 (ODS), and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography of the EtOAc fraction. The chemical structures of the compounds were determined based on spectroscopic data from 1H- and 13C-NMR, DEPT, and 2D-NMR (gCOSY, gHSQC, gHMBC) data. The new iridoids were identified as 3,7-dihydroxy-8-methyl-cyclopenta[c]pyran-4-carboxylic acid (1) and rel-(1S,5R,9S)-9-ethenyl-1-(β-D-glucopyrinosyloxy)-5,9-dihydro-5-{2-[(2-methylbut-2-enoyl)oxy]ethyl}-1H-pyran-4-carboxylic acid (5) and named viburnin and epi-7-O-tigloylsecologanolic acid, respectively. This is the first report of the isolation of these five iridoids from V. erosum.

Tinospora crispa Miers (Menispermaceae) is a climbing vine with stems rich in warts. The plant is called Akar Seruntum or Patawali in Malaysia and is widely used for treating skin complaints, malaria, bacterial abscess, high blood pressure and diabetes. In the present study, the stems of T. crispa were collected from the locality and succesively extracted with petroleum ether, followed by chloroform and ethanol. The insecticidal active extract (ethanol extract) was  subjected to column chromatography of silica gel eluted with a gradient mobile phase containing hexane, chloroform and ethanol. Among the chemical constituents isolated are n-tetracosyl trans-ferulate and n-octacosyl alcohol, along with three known aporphine alkaloids; N-formylnornuciferine, N-acetylnornuciferine and lysicamine. All compounds were identified by comparing their spectroscopic data (UV, IR, 1H NMR, MS) with data from corresponding values in the literature. Isolation of n-tetracosyl trans-ferulate and n-octacosyl alcohol is reported the first time for T. crispa.

High-speed countercurrent chromatography (HSCCC) and silica gel column chromatography were used to separate and purify alkaloids from Chinese herbal medicine Euchresta tubulosa Dunn. The purpose of this study is to provide a system mode for rapid separation of alkaloids from natural products. In the experiment, the eluent of silica gel column chromatography was screened by thin layer chromatography (TLC) to obtain four components with different polarity. Then, the two-phase solvent systems of different components were selected and purified by HSCCC. Four alkaloids with relatively high content were obtained by this mode successfully, including matrine (28 mg), oxymatrine (32 mg), N-formyl cytisine (24 mg), and cytisine (58 mg). The purity was higher than 91% by high performance liquid chromatography–ultraviolet (HPLC-UV) and their chemical structures were identified by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and electron ionization mass spectrometry (EI-MS). The results showed that the combination of HSCCC and silica gel column chromatography could make alkaloids from natural products separate systematically.

AbstractRepeated column chromatography using Sephadex LH-20, silica gel (SiO2), and octadecyl SiO2 (ODS) as well as preparative HPLC column chromatography led to isolation of a new dibenzocyclooctadiene lignan along with four known ones, gomisin L2 (1), L1 (2), M1 (3), and M2 (4). Their chemical structures were fixed based on MS, IR, and NMR data analyses. In addition, the stereochemistry of atropisomers, the absolute configuration of the axial chirality in a biphenyl structure, was confirmed by a CD experiment. The new lignan was named gomisin M3 (5).

Abstract From the heartwood of Lindera glauca Blume three new diarylpropanoids have been isolated and identified, which were named lindeglaucol, lindeglaucone, and lindeglaucoside A. Chipped heartwood was extracted repeatedly with 80% aqueous methanol (MeOH) at room temperature, and the concentrated methanolic extract was successively partitioned with ethyl acetate (EtOAc), n-butanol, and H2O. From the EtOAc fraction, three new diarylpropanoids and a known chalconoid were isolated through repeated column chromatography with silica gel, octadecyl silica gel, and Sephadex LH-20. The chemical structures of the compounds were elucidated by interpretation of extensive spectroscopic data such as nuclear magnetic resonance, fast atom bombardment mass spectroscopy, and infrared. In addition, a known chalconoid, cilicicone B, was isolated for the first time from the heartwood of L. glauca.

Limonoids (tetranortriterpenoids) are triterpenoid compounds that lose four terminals in their structural framework. These compounds have a wide variety of structures and interesting activities including anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, anti-tumor and anti-malarial properties. The purpose of this study was to find limonoid compounds from the Indonesian Chisocheton plant, and one of which is Chisocheton macrophyllus. The dried and powdered seeds of C. macrophyllus (4.5 kg) were extracted with methanol and partitioned successively with n-hexane, ethyl acetate and n-butanol. Evaporation of each extract resulted in the crude extracts of n-hexane (346.6 g), ethyl acetate (60.8 g) and n-butanol (14.6 g). The n-hexane fraction was subjected to a silica gel vacuum-liquid chromatography (VLC) column packed with silica gel 60 using gradient of n-hexane, ethyl acetate and methanol (10% stepwise) to afford thirteen fractions (A-M). Fraction F (4.4 g) was subjected to silica gel column chromatography using gradient of n-hexane and ethyl acetate (5% stepwise). Subfraction F5 (1.2 g) was chromatographed on a column of silica gel eluted with n-hexane: CH2Cl2: EtOAc (2:7.5:0.5) to give compound 1 (19.7 mg) and fraction H (1.8 g) was subjected to silica gel column chromatography using gradient of n-hexane and ethyl acetate (5% stepwise) as eluting solvent to give 2 (12.0 mg). Chemical structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated by spectroscopic methods and determined as 6α-acetoxyepoxyazadiradione (1) and Dysobinin(2). Dysobinin (2) showed weak cytotoxic activity against MCF-7 breast cancer cells with an IC50 value of 228.15 μM

The extract from Cnidium officinale rhizomes was shown in a prior experiment to markedly recover otic hair cells in zebrafish damaged by neomycin. The current study was brought about to identify the principal metabolite. Column chromatography using octadecyl SiO2 and SiO2 was performed to isolate the major metabolites from the active fraction. The chemical structures were resolved on the basis of spectroscopic data, including NMR, IR, MS, and circular dichroism (CD) data. The isolated phthalide glycosides were assessed for their recovery effect on damaged otic hair cells in neomycin-treated zebrafish. Three new phthalide glycosides were isolated, and their chemical structures, including stereochemical characteristics, were determined. Two glycosides (0.1 μM) showed a recovery effect (p < 0.01) on otic hair cells in zebrafish affected by neomycin ototoxicity. Repeated column chromatography led to the isolation of three new phthalide glycosides, named ligusticosides C (1), D (2), and E (3). Ligusticoside C and ligusticoside E recovered damaged otic hair cells in zebrafish.

Trypanocidal activity was found in the volatile oil of dried Dracocephalum kotschyi. GCMS analysis determined that the major constituents of the oil were geranial (35.8%), C10H14O (26.6%), limonene (15.8%) and 1,1-dimethoxy decane (14.5%). In order to isolate the unknown biologically active monoterpene, fractionation of the volatile oil was carried out by silica gel column chromatography. The structure of the oxygenated compound was confirmed to be limonene-10-al (C10H14O) by analysis of physical and spectroscopic data (1H NMR, 13C NMR, HMBC and HMQC).
