Triterpenoids and glycosides from Geum japonicum

Two new glucosides and two known ester glucosides have been isolated from Geum japonicum. The two new glucosides were isolated by formation of their acetates and were identified as glucosides of 2-isopropyl-5-methylhydroquinone by chemical and spectral studies. The two known ester glucosides were identified as niga-ichigoside F1 and suavissimoside F1 by direct comparison with authentic samples. 2α,19α-Dihydroxyursolic acid and the known glycoside, gein, were also isolated from the same plant, in addition to a mixture of 2α-hydroxyursolic acid and 2α-hydroxyoleanolic acid.     

Triterpenoids from Salvia phlomoides, three new lupane derivatives

Three new triterpenoids have been isolated from the aerial parts of Salvia phlomoides. Their structures have been established by chemical and spectroscopic means and by correlation with known products as lupane-3β,11α,20-triol, 3β-acetoxy-lupane-11α,20-diol and 3-keto-lupane-11α,20-diol.     

A new dimeric carbazole alkaloid from Murraya koenigii (L.) leaves with α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities

A new dimeric carbazole alkaloid, 3,3′,5,5′,8-pentamethyl-3,3′-bis(4-methylpent-3-en-1-yl)-3,3′,11,11′-tetrahydro-10,10′-bipyrano[3,2-a]carbazole, was isolated from the hexane extract of leaves of Murraya koenigii (L.) Sprengel. (Family: Rutaceae). The structure was elucidated based on ¹³C and ¹H NMR, High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry (HRMS), and 2D NMR data. The in vitro antidiabetic activity of the new dimer was investigated in terms of α-amylase and α-glucosidase enzyme inhibition assays. The dimer exhibited significant α-amylase inhibitory activity (IC₅₀ = 30.32 ± 0.34 ppm) and α-glucosidase inhibitory activity (IC₅₀ = 30.91 ± 0.36 ppm).

In vitro and in silico evaluations of diarylpentanoid series as α-glucosidase inhibitor

A series of thirty-four diarylpentanoids derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. Eleven compounds (19, 20, 21, 24, 27, 28, 29, 31, 32, 33 and 34) were found to significantly inhibit α-glucosidase in which compounds 28, 31 and 32 demonstrated the highest activity with IC₅₀ values ranging from 14.1 to 15.1?µM. Structure-activity comparison shows that multiple hydroxy groups are essential for α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. Meanwhile, 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl and furanyl moieties were found to be crucial in improving α-glucosidase inhibition. Molecular docking analyses further confirmed the critical role of both 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl and furanyl moieties as they bound to α-glucosidase active site in different mode. Overall result suggests that diarylpentanoids with both five membered heterocyclic ring and polyhydroxyphenyl moiety could be a new lead design in the search of novel α-glucosidase inhibitor.

α-Glucosidase-inhibitory iminosugars from the leaves of Suregada glomerulata

A water extract of the leaves of Suregada glomerulata (Euphorbiaceae) was found to inhibit rat small intestinal α-glucosidase. An examination of the extract afforded 20 iminosugars including one pyrrolidine and 19 piperidines. The structures of the 10 new compounds (11–20) were determined by NMR, and MS spectroscopic data analyses, and chemical correlations. The novelty of the identified compounds mainly stems from the loss of a hydroxy at C-4 and the presence of an 8-hydroxyoctyl side chain. Nine N-alkyl derivatives including N-methyl (1a, 8a, and 13a), N-butyl (1b, 2b, and 9b) and N,N-dimethyl (1c, 2c, and 9c) were synthesized. The compounds were tested for rat small intestinal α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. In total, 15 compounds, including compounds 11, 12, 15, and 19 and the three derivatives 8a, 9b, and 13a, showed inhibitory activity with IC₅₀ values less than 40 μM. In vivo results showed that total alkaloids of S. glomerulata (10 mg/kg) and four major iminosugars 1, 2, 3, and 9 (10 mg/kg) can lower the postprandial blood glucose level after sucrose and starch load in healthy male ICR mice.
