A New Naphtho[2,3-c]Furan-1(3H)-One Derivative and Anti-Inflammatory and Antioxidant Constituents from Rhamnus kanagusukii
摘要
A new naphtho[2,3-c]furan-1(3H)-one derivative, 6,8,9-trihydroxynaphtho[2,3-c]furan-1(3H)-one (1), has been isolated from the stem bark of Rhamnus kanagusukii, together with eight known compounds, chrysophanol (2), emodin (3), rhamnazin (4), kaempferol (5), apigenin (6), taxifolin (7), ferulic acid (8), and gallic acid (9). The structure of new compound 1 was determined using spectroscopic and MS analyses. Among the isolated compounds, 6,8,9-trihydroxynaphtho[2,3-c]furan-1(3H)-one (1), kaempferol (5), apigenin (6), and taxifolin (7) showed potent inhibition with IC50 values of 19.48 ± 1.52, 20.48 ± 1.84, 16.47 ± 1.25, and 15.44 ± 1.02 μM, respectively, against LPS-induced NO generation. In addition, compounds 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 also showed potent DPPH radical scavenging activities with IC50 values of 21.11 ± 1.84, 22.47 ± 2.04, 13.02 ± 1.07, 14.54 ± 1.35, and 13.48 ± 1.16 μM respectively.
