Linderasesterterpenoids A and B: Two 7-Cyclohexyldecahydroazulene Carbon Skeleton Sesterterpenoids Isolated from the Root of Lindera glauca

Org Lett. 2022 May 27;24(20):3717-3720. doi: 10.1021/acs.orglett.2c01364. Epub 2022 May 13.

Abstract

Two novel sesterterpenoids linderasesterterpenoids A (1) and B (2) with an unprecedented 7-cyclohexyldecahydroazulene carbon skeleton isolated from the root of Lindera glauca. Their structures were elucidated by X-ray diffraction, quantum chemical calculations, and spectroscopic methods. The biogenetic pathway for 1 and 2 is proposed. In the bioassay, linderasesterterpenoids A and B showed good inhibitory activities against LPS-induced NO production in RAW 264.7 cells compared to a positive control.
