Abstract:
Two new glycosidated coumaramides clerodendiod A (1) and B (2), together with seven known glycosidic compounds were isolated from the branches of Clerodendron cyrtophyllum Turcz. Clerodendiod A and B were elucidated as β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→3)-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→3)-[6-O-(E)-p-methoxycinnamoyl]-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→2)-[4-O-((E)-2-(4-acetamidobutylcarbamoyl)vinyl)-phenyl]-α-L-rhamnopyranoside (1) and 6-O-(E)-p-coumaroyl-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→3)-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→3)-[6-O-(E)-p-methoxycinnamoyl]-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→2)-[4-O-((E)-2-(4-acetamidobutylcarbamoyl)vinyl)-phenyl]-α-L-rhamnopyranoside (2) on the basis of chemical and spectral evidence. The isolated new compound 2 was assayed for the inhibition of the NF-κB pathway and showed potent activity in inhibiting NF-κB which its IC(50) values was found to be 24.9 nM.
