Abstract:
The 60% ethanolic extract of Selaginella uncinata (Desv.) Spring possessed potent anti-anoxic effect in the anoxic PC12 cell assay. A phytochemical study of its EtOAc-soluble part led to the isolation of four new and three known biflavonoids. Their structures were established on the basis of physico-chemical properties and spectroscopic analysis. The absolute configurations of the new compounds were determined with the aid of circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy. Compounds 4 and 5 showed potent anti-anoxic effect in the anoxic PC12 cell assay.
