A chemical investigation was carried out on a crinoid Colobometra perspinosa collected from Hengchun Peninsula in the South China Sea, which led to the isolation of five angular naphthopyrones (1–5), including one new metabolite, 8-hydroxy-5,6,10-trimethoxy-2-pentyl-4H-naphtho[1,2-b]pyran-4-one (1). Their structures were assigned based on spectroscopic methods, including UV, HRESIMS, 1D- and 2D-NMR spectra. The anti-inflammatory activity of the isolated compounds was evaluated and compound 5 was found to inhibit the accumulation of the pro-inflammatory iNOS protein in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophages.

One new cembrane diterpenoid, named sarcolactone A (1), along with five known compounds (2–6) were isolated from the soft coral Sarcophyton infundibuliforme collected from the South China Sea. The structure of sarcolactone A (1) was elucidated by comprehensive analysis of spectral data, especially 2D-NMR spectra (1H-1H COSY, HMBC and NOESY). All the compounds were evaluated for their brine shrimp lethality and antifouling activities.

Six new fusarin derivatives, fusarins G–L (1–6), together with five known compounds (5–11) were isolated from the marine-derived fungus Fusarium solani 7227. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by means of comprehensive spectroscopic methods (1D and 2D NMR, HRESIMS, ECD, and ORC) and X-ray crystallography. Compounds 5–11 exhibited potent anti-inflammatory activity by inhibiting the production of NO in RAW264.7 cells activated by lipopolysaccharide, with IC50 values ranging from 3.6 to 32.2 μM. The structure–activity relationships of the fusarins are discussed herein.

Chemical study of the CH2Cl2-MeOH (1:1) extract of the sponge Fascaplysinopsis reticulata collected in Mayotte highlighted three new tryptophan derived alkaloids, 6,6′-bis-(debromo)-gelliusine F (1), 6-bromo-8,1′-dihydro-isoplysin A (2) and 5,6-dibromo-8,1′-dihydro-isoplysin A (3), along with the synthetically known 8-oxo-tryptamine (4) and the three known molecules from the same family, tryptamine (5), (E)-6-bromo-2′-demethyl-3′-N-methylaplysinopsin (6) and (Z)-6-bromo-2′-demethyl-3′-N-methylaplysinopsin (7). Their structures were elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR spectra and HRESIMS data. All compounds were evaluated for their antimicrobial and their antiplasmodial activities. Regarding antimicrobial activities, the best compounds are (2) and (3), with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 0.01 and 1 µg/mL, respectively, towards Vibrio natrigens, and (5), with MIC values of 1 µg/mL towards Vibrio carchariae. In addition the known 8-oxo-tryptamine (4) and the mixture of the (E)-6-bromo-2′-demethyl-3′-N-methylaplysinopsin (6) and (Z)-6-bromo-2′-demethyl-3′-N-methylaplysinopsin (7) showed moderate antiplasmodial activity against Plasmodium falciparum with IC50 values of 8.8 and 8.0 µg/mL, respectively.

Abstract Two new pentacyclic triterpenes 8,26-cyclo-urs-21-en-3β, 20β-diol (1) and 3β-acetoxy-8.26- cyclo-ursan-20β-ol (2) together with 3-friedelanone, oleanolic acid, betulinic acid, lupeol acetate, α- and β-amyrine, S.SJ^'-tetrahydroxyflavane, and 3,5,7,3',4'-pentahydroxyflavane were isolated from the stem bark of Ficus cordata (Moraceae). The structures of these secondary metabolites were established using ID and 2D NMR spectra and by comparison with published data or with authentic samples. Compounds 1 and 2 exhibited weak antibacterial and no antifungal activity.

Phloridzin is a lead compound of the prestigious antidiabetic gliflozins. The present study found that phloridzin highly accumulated in Malus rockii Rehder. The content of phloridzin in M. rockii was the highest among wild plants, with the percentage of 15.54% in the dry leaves. The structure of phloridzin was revised by proton exchange experiments and extensive 2D NMR spectra. Phloridzin exhibited significant hypolipidemic activity in golden Syrian hamsters maybe by increasing the expression of CYP7A1, at the doses of 50 mg/kg and 200 mg/kg. The total performance of anti-hyperlipidemic effect of phloridzin may be superior to that of lovastatin, though lovastatin was more active than phloridzin. In addition, phloridzin exhibited moderate antimalarial activity with inhibition ratio of 31.3±10.9% at a dose of 25 mg/kg/day, and showed moderate analgesic activity with 28.0% inhibition at a dose of 50 mg/kg.
