A New Chalconoid Derivative and Anti-Inflammatory Constituents from Litsea perrottetii
摘要
A new chalconoid derivative, (E)-1-(2,6-dihydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)-3-(4-hydroxy-3,5- imethoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (1), has been isolated from the roots of Litsea perrottetii, together with seven known compounds, 2′,4′,6′-trihydroxychalcone (2), flavokawain B (3), myricetin (4), luteolin (5), (+)-catechin (6), (–)-epicatechin (7), and N-trans-feruloyl-3-O-methyldopamine (8). The structure of the new compound 1 was determined through spectroscopic and MS analyses. Among the isolated compounds, compounds 1, 3, and 5 showed potent inhibition, with IC50 values of 17.58 ± 2.02, 15.24 ± 1.13, and 10.04 ± 0.84 μM, respectively, against LPS-induced NO generation.
