Five minor sesquiterpenes (1-5) with two novel carbon skeletons, together with a minor new oplopane sesquiterpene (6), have been isolated from the brown alga Dictyopteris divaricata. By means of spectroscopic data including IR, HRMS, 1D and 2D NMR, and CD, their structures including absolute configurations were assigned as (+)-(1R,5S,6S,9R)-3-acetyl-1-hydroxy-6-isopropyl-9-methylbicyclo[4.3.0]non-3-ene (1), (+)-(1R,3S,4S,5R,6S,9R)-3-acetyl-1,4-dihydroxy-6-isopropyl-9-methylbicyclo[4.3.0]nonane (2), (+)-(1R,3R,4R,5R,6S,9R)-3-acetyl-1,4-dihydroxy-6-isopropyl-9-methylbicyclo[4.3.0]nonane (3), (+)-(1S,2R,6S,9R)-1-hydroxy-2-(1-hydroxyethyl)-6-isopropyl-9-methylbicyclo[4.3.0]non-4-en-3-one (4), (-)-(5S,6R,9S)-2-acetyl-5-hydroxy-6-isopropyl-9-methylbicyclo[4.3.0]non-1-en-3-one (5), and (-)-(1S,6S,9R)-4-acetyl-1-hydroxy-6-isopropyl-9-methylbicyclo[4.3.0]non-4-en-3-one (6). Biogenetically, the carbon skeletons of 1-6 may be derived from the co-occurring cadinane skeleton by different ring contraction rearrangements. Compounds 1-6 were inactive (IC(50) > 10 mug/mL) against several human cancer cell lines.
From the roots of Sophora flavescens collected in Taiwan, four new prenylflavonoids, sophoraflavanone K (1), sophoraflavanone L (2), 8-lavandulylkaempferol (3), and cyclokuraridin (4), a new arylbenzofuran, 2-(2,4-dihydroxy-5-prenylphenyl)-5,6-methylenedioxybenzofuran (5), and a new prenyldibenzoyl derivative, sophoradione (6), were isolated. The structures of 1-6 were determined by spectroscopic data analysis. Compounds 2-6 were evaluated for cytotoxic activity against the KB epidermoid carcinoma cell line.
A new bisindole sulfate (1) and arcyroxocin B (2) were isolated from wild fruiting bodies of Arcyria denudate, along with three known bisindoles (4-6). Dihydroarcyriacyanin A (3) was obtained from wild fruiting bodies of Arcyria obvelata, along with a known bisindole (7). The structures of these compounds were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data, and this is the first report of full characterizations of arcyroxocin B (2) and dihydroarcyriacyanin A (3). Compounds 2, 3, and 6 showed cytotoxicity against Jurkat cells.
