Abstract:
Three new thionic compounds, ()-2-(2-carboxyl-2-hydroxyethylthio)-ferulic acid (), ()-2-methoxy-4-(3-(methylsulfonyl)prop-1-en-1-yl)phenol (), and thiosenkyunolide C (), together with two new aromatic glycosides ( and ) were isolated from the rhizome of Hort. Two known compounds ( and ) were also obtained. Their structures were elucidated based on extensive spectroscopic data (UV, IR, 1D and 2D NMR, and HR-ESI-MS). Furthermore the absolute configurations were established by comparison of their calculated and experimental circular dichroism spectra and by a dimolybdenum tetraacetate [Mo(AcO)]-induced circular dichroism procedure. All compounds were evaluated against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced NO production in BV2 cells, and compounds and showed strong inhibitory activities with IC values of 2.03 and 3.09 µmol/L, respectively (positive control curcumin, IC = 6.17 µmol/L). In addition, compound showed weak proteintyrosine phosphatase-1B (PTP1B) inhibitory activity.
