Bioassay-guided isolation studies of the extract of Clerodendrum kaichianum Hsu., a new rearranged abietane diterpene and five known diterpene compounds were isolated by various chromatography methods. Their structures were identified by means of spectroscopic methods, including 1D- and 2D-NMR spectroscopy, as (16 R)-12,16-epoxy-11,14,17-trihydroxy-17(15→16)- abeo-8,11,13-abietatrien-7-one (1), villosin A (2), salvinolone (3), 14-deoxyloleon U (4), 5,6-dehydrosugiol (5), and coleon U (6). Compounds 1, 2, 3, and 5 are reported for the first time for this genus. Compounds 1, 2, and 6 demonstrated potent cytotoxic activities against the HL-60 tumor cell line.

Two isomers, (Z)- and (E)-palmityl 4-hydroxycinnamate [hexadecyl(2Z)-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)prop-2-enoate and hexadecyl(2E)-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)prop-2-enoate] were isolated for the first time from ligulate flowers of Taraxacum linearisquameum Soest (sect. Taraxacum). The highest amount of these compounds was detected in pollen grains; 0.26 mg/100 mg DW of the (E)-isomer and 0.096 mg/100 mg DW of the (Z)-isomer. The structures of these compounds were elucidated by a combination of HPLC-ESI-Qtof-MS and ID and 2D NMR spectroscopy. Their presence was confirmed in other species of Taraxacum, but they were not found in the male-sterile triploid agamospermous taxon T. parnassicum.

A phenylpropanoid [2-(3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenyl)-propane-1,3-diol] (1) together with four known biflavonoids namely 7, 4′, 7′″, 4′″-tetra- O-methyl amentoflavone (2); 7, 4′, 7″-tri- O-methyl amentoflavone (3); ginkgetin (4); sequoiaflavone (5) were isolated from the acetone soluble extract of needles of Cephalotaxus harringtonia var. harringtonia. Their structures were elucidated mainly on the basis of interpretation of 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction studies. The detailed spectral data of phenylpropanoid have been described for the first time. Ginkgetin (4) exhibited significant hepatoprotective activity in rat at 6 mg/kg oral dose level.

Two new 8, 14-seco skeleton C21 steroidal aglycones, cynanbungeigenin A ( 1 ) and cynanbungeigenin B ( 2 ), were isolated from the hydrolyzed extract of the EtOAc soluble extract of the roots of Cynanchum bungei. Their structures were determined on the basis of chemical evidence and extensive spectroscopic methods, including 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy.

The structures of chelirubine and chelilutine free bases have been examined by 2D NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. Chelirubine chloride (1a) upon treatment with Na2CO3 yielded free base which possessed the constitution of bis(5,6-dihydrochelirubin-6-yl) ether (2a). The free base of chelilutine (1b) was determined to be bis(5,6-dihydrochelilutin-6-yl) ether (2b). The aqueous NH3 treatment of chelilutine (1b) produced bis(5,6-dihydrochelilutin-6-yl)amine (3b). 6-Hydroxy-5,6-dihydrochelirubine (4a) and 6-hydroxy-5,6-dihydrochelilutine (4b) were detected only in CDCl3 solution by NMR spectroscopy. In CDCl3, the compound 2b underwent hydrolysis to 4b that was immediately followed by the reverse condensation to a diastereomer of 2b. Pseudokinetics of this reaction was followed by NMR spectroscopy and quantum chemical calculations were carried out to support the suggested type of molecular symmetry alteration. The known alkaloid dihydrochelirubine (5) was isolated for the first time from Sanguinaria canadensis.

Seven new butanolides, peltanolides A–G (1–7), and two lignan glucosides, peltasides A (8) and B (9), along with eleven known compounds, 10–20, were isolated from a crude CH3OH/CH2Cl2 (1:1) extract of the fruit of Hernandia nymphaeifolia (Hernandiaceae). The structures of 1–9 were characterized by extensive 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic and HRMS analysis. The absolute configurations of newly isolated compounds 1–9 were determined from data obtained by optical rotation and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) exciton chirality methods. Butanolides and lignan glucosides have not been isolated previously from this genus. Several isolated compounds were evaluated for antiproliferative activity against human tumor cell lines. Lignans 15 and 16 were slightly active against chemosensitive tumor cell lines A549 and MCF-7, respectively. Furthermore, both compounds displayed significant activity (IC50 = 5 µM) against a P-glycoprotein overexpressing multidrug-resistant tumor cell line (KB-VIN) but were less active against its parent chemosensitive cell line (KB).

Two new guaiane sesquiterpenoids named jatrophaols A and B (1, 2), along with three known analogues, were isolated from the roots of Jatropha curcas. Their structures were determined by spectroscopic methods, including 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy, HR-EI-MS, HR-ESI-MS, and X-ray diffraction, as well as by comparison of their spectral data with those of related compounds.

Examination of the acetone extract of the aerial parts of Hypericum ellipticum afforded a new acetylated benzophenone glucoside (3′- O-β-D-3″,4″,6″-triacetylglucopyranosyl-2,4,5′,6-tetrahydroxybenzophenone) together with catechin and epicatechin. The structure of the benzophenone glucoside was determined by 2D NMR spectroscopic data. The compound inhibited the proliferation of CNS tumor cell line (SF-268) and lipid peroxidation in in vitro assays.

From the ethanol extract of the whole plant of Ageratum conyzoides L. (Compositae), one new chromene, 2,2-dimethylchromene 7-methoxy-6- O-β-D-glucopyranoside, was isolated, together with thirteen known compounds, seven of which were being reported for the first time. The compounds were all characterized by MS, IR, 1D- and 2D-NMR spectroscopy. 7,3′,5′-Tri- O-methyltricetin (7), precocene II (9), 3,5,7,4′-tetrahydroxyflavone (13) and 5,6,7,3′,4′,5′-hexamethoxyflavone (14) exhibited inhibitory activity on the P-388 cancer cell line with IC50 values of 12.8, 24.8, 3.5 and 7.8 μM respectively, while compound 9 exhibited inhibitory activity on the HT-29 cancer cell line with an IC50 value of 61μM; the others showed no significant cytotoxic activity on the cell lines tested.

From the aerial parts of Ajuga salicifolia (L.) Schreber, a new ionone glycoside (3β-hydroxy- 7,8-dihydro-4-oxo-β-ionol-9-O-β-ᴅ-glucopyranoside) was isolated, along with the known compounds, corchoionoside C, 8-O-acetylmioporoside, ajugol, harpagide, 8-O-acetylharpagide, lavandulifolioside and leonosides A and B. This is the first report of the occurrence of ionone glycosides and 8-O-acetylmioporoside in Ajuga species. Ajugol, lavandulifolioside, leonoside A and B were isolated for the first time from Ajuga salicifolia. The structures were elucidated by means of 1D-, 2D-NMR spectroscopy, and HR-MALDI mass spectrometry.
