Abstract:
Hypersonins A-D (1-4), four 1,2-seco-homoadamantane type polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols (PPAPs) possessing a new bicyclo[4.3.1]decane-3-methoxycarbonyl architecture, were obtained from Hypericum wilsonii. The structures of hypersonins A-D were identified by spectroscopic data, electronic circular dichroism comparison, and X-ray crystallographic data. Hypersonins A-D are the first seco-homoadamantane-type PPAPs with cleavage at the C-1-C-2 bond. Hypersonin A (1) showed moderate inhibitory activity to anti-CD3/anti-CD28 monoclonal antibody-induced proliferation of murine splenocytes, with an IC50 value of 8.3 ± 0.2 μM.

Aromatic ring substitutions: Substituting the aromatic ring with –OH groups at positions 3 and 4 yields catecholamines (e.g., epinephrine), which have a high affinity for adrenoceptors. Hydrogen bonding between –OH groups and receptors enhances adrenergic activity.
