Abstract

Three new procyanidins (1-3), two new phlobatannins (6 and 7), a new flavan-3,4-diol glycoside (9), and a new neolignan glycoside (10), along with three previously reported compounds (4, 5, and 8) were isolated from the twigs of Rosa multiflora. The chemical structures of the new compounds (1-3, 6, 7, 9, and 10) were characterized by spectroscopic data interpretation, including NMR (1H and 13C NMR, 1H-1H COSY, HSQC, HMBC, and NOESY) and HRESIMS analysis. Experimental ECD data analysis was conducted to assign the absolute configurations of the new compounds (1-3, 6, 7, 9, and 10). The absolute configuration of the sugar moieties was verified through a chiral derivatization method and LC-MS analysis. All the isolated compounds (1-10) were evaluated for their anti-neuroinflammatory activity based on inhibitory effects on nitric oxide production using a lipopolysaccharide-stimulated murine microglia BV-2 cell line and for their neurotrophic effects on nerve growth factor induction in C6 glioma.
