Novel sesquilignan and lignan glycoside from the twigs and leaves of Illicium majus.[Pubmed: 29928965]
A novel sesquilignan compound (1), possesing an unusual carbon skeleton of aryltetralin unit linked with a C6-C3 unit and a five-membered ring by a C-7″ and C-4 linkage pattern via an oxygen atom, and a new lignan glycoside (2) have been isolated from the twigs and leaves of Illicium majus. Their structures were determined by spectroscopic analysis and chemical methods. The absolute configurations of 1 and 2 are confirmed by observing the circular dichroism. At 10 μM, Compounds 1 and 2 showed in Vitro inhibitory activity against the release of β-glucuronidase in rat polymorphonuclear leukocytes induced by platelet-activating factor.
[Chemical constituents from roots of Illicium majus].[Pubmed: 25272497]
Ten compounds, including seven sesquiterpenes, two phenols and one phenylpropanoid, were isolated from the roots of Illicium majus by means of silica gel, ODS, Sephadex LH-20, and preparative HPLC. On analysis of MS and NMR spectroscopic data , their structures were established as cycloparviflorolide (1), cycloparvifloralone (2), tashironin (3), tashironin A (4), anislactone A(5), anislactone B (6), pseudomajucin (7), syringaldehyde (8), methyl-4-hydroxy-3, 5-dimethoxybenzoate (9), and (E)-3-methoxy-4,5-methylenedioxycinnamic alchol (10), respectively. Compounds 1-4 and 8-10 were first isolated from this plant. In the in vitro assays, at a concentration of 1.0 x 10(-5) mol x L(-1), compounds 5 and 6 were active against LPS induced NO production in microglia with a inhibition rate of 75.31% and 53.7%, respectively.
Diterpenoids and sesquiterpenoids from the roots of Illicium majus.[Pubmed: 24070022]
Five new diterpenoids (1-5), five new sesquiterpenoids (6-10), and three known compounds (11-13) were isolated from the roots of Illicium majus. Their structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis. The absolute configuration of 1 was assigned by X-ray crystallography, whereas those of the 1,2-diol moieties in 3 and 4 were determined using Snatzke's method. The abietane acids 1, 2, 11, 12, and 13 displayed antiviral activity against the Coxsackie B3 virus, with IC50 values of 3.3-51.7 μM/mL.
Diterpenoids and sesquiterpenoids from the twigs and leaves of Illicium majus.[Pubmed: 23250809]
Four new abietane diterpenes (1-4) and two new cycloparvifloralone-type sesquiterpenoids (5-6) have been isolated from the twigs and leaves of Illicium majus, together with three known sesquiterpenoids and five known diterpenoids. Their structures were determined by spectroscopic analysis and chemical methods. The absolute configuration of the 15,16-diol moiety in 2 is confirmed by Snatzke's method, observing the induced circular dichroism after the addition of dimolybdenum tetraacetate in DMSO. Compound 2 exihibited significant anti-inflammatory activity with an IC50 value of 0.26 ± 0.03 µM, while compounds 10, 11, and 13 showed good anti-inflammatory activities with IC50 values ranging from 1.94 ± 0.56 to 2.60 ± 0.48 µM.
Distinguishing chinese star anise from Japanese star anise using thermal desorption-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.[Pubmed: 19507874]
The volatile compounds from the pericarps of Illicium anisatum L., Illicium brevistylum A.C.Sm., Illicium griffithii Hook.f. & Thomson, Illicium henryi Diels, Illicium lanceolatum A.C.Sm., Illicium majus Hook.f. & Thomson, Illicium micranthum Dunn, and Illicium verum Hook.f. were examined by thermal desorption-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (TD-GC-MS). The volatiles desorbed from the pericarps of I. verum (Chinese star anise), the species traded for culinary purposes, were generally characterized by a high proportion of (E)-anethole (57.6-77.1%) and the presence of foeniculin; the latter was otherwise only detected in the pericarps of I. lanceolatum. In the pericarps of all other species analyzed, the percentage composition of (E)-anethole was comparatively lower ( The prezizaane sesquiterpene angustisepalin has been isolated from the aerial parts of Illicium angustisepalum, and its structure determined by 2D-NMR spectroscopy. Angustisepalin is formally the 10-benzoyl ester of neomajucin, previously reported from Illicium majus. The chemical constituents of essential oils from the pericarps of Illicium majus and I. micranthum were analyzed. Seventy-two compounds have been identified by GC-MS, of which safrole, linalool and limonene are higher in content. A new toxic neoanisatin-derivative (1) was isolated from the pericarps of Illicium majus. The structure of this compound was elucidated by spectroscopic data, including the 2D COSY NMR technique. The toxicity of compound 1 is also described.A prezizaane sesquiterpene from Illicium angustisepalum.[Pubmed: 11711087]
