Abstract:
Objective To study the chemical constituents of Acanthus ilicifolius. Methods Compounds were isolated and purified on silica gel,SephadexLH -20 and HPLC,and their chemical structures were elucidated by spectral evidence,physical and chemical analyses. Results and Conclusion Nine compounds,named as stigmasta-4-en-3-one(1),stigmasta-4,22-diene-3-one(2),campest-4-en-3-one(3),tigmasta-4-en-3,6-dione(4),Stigmasta-4,22-diene-3,6-dione(5),Stigmasta-4,22-diene-6?-ol-3-one(6),6?-hydroxyl-stigmasta-4-en-3-one(7),3?-hydroxyl-stigmasta-5,22-diene-7-one(8),3?-hydroxyl-stigmasta-5-en-7-one(9),respectively,were obtained from the petroleum ether soluble portion in the methanol extracts of Acanthus ilicifolius. Among them,compounds 4~8 were reported from this plant for the first time,compounds 2,4 and 9 showed moderate activity against selected tumor cell lines.
