Main Results:

  • Two new cyclic peptides, stellarin B and stellarin C, were successfully isolated.
  • The structure of stellarin B was determined as cyclo(Gly-Ser-HOIle-Phe-Phe-Ala).
  • The structure of stellarin C was determined as cyclo(Gly-Ser-HOIle-Phe-Phe-Ser).

Conclusions:

  • The chemical study of Stellarina yunnanensis yielded two novel cyclopeptides.
  • The structural elucidation of stellarin B and C expands the knowledge of cyclopeptides from this plant genus.
  • These findings contribute to the understanding of the chemical diversity of natural products.
