Abstract
:A new flavonol glycoside together with five known phenolic compounds were isolated from the whole herb of Callianthemum taipaicum.The compounds were identified as isorhamnetin-3-O-α-L-arabinoside-7-O-β-D-glucoside (1), isorhamnetin-3-O-β-D-glucoside (2), dibutyl phthalate (3), (+)-1-hydroxylpinoresinol-4'-β-D-glucoside (4), pinoresinol-4'-O-β-D-glucoside (5) and 2-phenylethyl-β-primeveroside (6). Compound 1 was identified as a new flavonol glycoside. The compound 6 was isolated for the first time as natural product. All compounds were isolated for the first time from the Callianthemum genus. Furthermore, the 2D-NMR data of the four known compounds 2–5 are given for the first time in this paper. All the structures were identified on the basis of detailed spectral analysis. The compounds 1 and 4 exhibited certain antifungal activity.
1. Introduction
Plants have been utilized as medicines for thousands of years [1]. About 80% of the World’s population uses medicinal plants for primary health care [2]. Medicinal plants have attracted more and more attention for their “safety, cultural acceptability and lesser side effects”, for instance, Ginkgo biloba for tinnitus, Hypericum perforatum for depression [3]. Natural products isolated from medicinal plants were used by indigenous populations for physiological and therapeutic effect, aconitine, atisine, lstrychnine, digoxin, atropine and morphine are some common examples [4]. Isolation and characterization of natural products from medicinal plants has played a significant role in drug discovery and development.
The Qinling Mountains are an important traditional Chinese medicine area in China. They serve as an important medicinal plant resource. Taibai Mountain, also known as “Herbal Kingdom” and “Natural Botanical Garden of Asia”, is the highest peak of the Qinling Mountains, with the altitude of 3767.2 m. Due to the special environment, there are many unique medical plants growing in this area [5]. The Callianthemum genus belongs to the family Ranunculaceae, which include 12 species worldwide, many of them are found in Asia and Europe. There are five species distributed in west and northwest China. Callianthemum taipaicum is an endemic species of Taibai Mountain, where it grows at altitudes between 3,450 to 3,600 m [6]. The whole herb of this plant has detoxifying and anti-inflammatory activity, and can be used as a medicine to treat various diseases including children’s pneumonia and drug-fire eyesight [7]. Due to the special environment where Callianthemum taipaicum grows, it could contain many special phytochemicals. However, a literature survey revealed that no chemical work has been carried out on this plant or indeed the Callianthemum genus so far. In order to identify functional compounds from Callianthemum taipaicum, we have isolated a new isorhamnetin glycoside (1) together with five known phenolic compounds 2–6. The present paper, for the first time, describes the isolation and structure elucidation of these compounds by detailed analysis of their NMR spectra. The antifungal activity of compounds 1, 4 is also discussed.
2. Results and Discussion
2.1.Structure Elucidation of the New Compound
Compound 1 obtained as a light yellow amorphous powder. Its molecular formula was established as C27H30O16 on the basis of HR-ESI-MS: m/z 611.1602 [M+H]+ (calcd. [M+H]+ 611.1607) and ESI-MS m/z 611.0 [M+H]+. The IR spectrum showed the characteristic absorption bands of hydroxyl (3444.87 and 3429.43 cm−1), carbonyl (1653.00 cm−1) and phenyl group (1600.92 and 1490.97 cm−1) [8]. 13C-NMR and DEPT spectrum showed signals for one OCH3, two CH2 (all aliphatic), fourteen CH (five aromatic, nine aliphatic) and ten quaternary carbons (one carbonyl, five O-bearing and four aliphatic) [9]. The 1H- and 13C-NMR spectra of compound 1 were compared with the data of known compounds and showed a typical flavonol pattern with an isorhamnetin aglycon (Table 1) [10,11,12]. In addition to the isorhamnetin moiety, mass and NMR spectra showed signals corresponding to two sugar moieties. Acid hydrolysis of compound 1 gave D-glucose and L-arabinose, identified by comparision with an authentic sample. The sugar portion was examined by TLC analysis. The 1H-NMR spectrum of compound 1 displayed two doublets at δ 5.57 (1H, d, J = 7.0 Hz) and δ 5.06 (1H, d, J = 6.6 Hz) for the anomeric protons. Based on the coupling constant J = 7.0 Hz and 6.6Hz greater than 4.0 Hz, the sugar configurations could be identified as α-L-arabinose and β-D-glucose, respectively, which correlated respectively with signals at 100.71, 100.11 in the HSQC spectrum [13,14]. In the HMBC (Figure 1), the anomeric proton signal of the arabinose at δ 5.57 (H-1'') correlated with the carbon signal at δ 133.26 (C-3), the proton signal of the glucose at δ 5.06 (H-1''') correlated with the anomeric carbon signal of the apiose at δ 162.73(C-7). These indicated that the arabinose attached to C-3 of the aglycone, the glucose attached to C-7 of the aglycone [15]. In addition, in the literature, there was a remarkable upfield shift (∆δ 2.7) for the C-7 of an isorhamnetin 3,7-diglycoside (δ 161.8) compared to an isorhamnetin 3-glycoside (δ 164.5), the 13C-NMR spectrum of compound 1 showed that the chemical shift of δ 162.73 for C-7, was close to the chemical shift of δ 161.8 [11]. Based on the above evidence and detailed analysis of the NMR spectra, the structure of compound 1 was determined as isorhamnetin-3-O-α-L-arabinopyranose-7-β-D-glucopyranoside, which had not been reported previously.

Thus, the structure of compound 5 was identified as pinoresinol-4'-O-β-D-glucopyranoside, which had been isolated from the plant of Rhus javanica var. roxburghiana [19].
Compound 6 was obtained as a white amorphous powder. ESI-MS: m/z 425.142 [M+Na]+. 1H- NMR (acetone d6): δ = 7.27–7.4 (m, 1H), 4.46 (d, J = 7.6 Hz, 1H), 4.46 (d, J = 5.7 Hz, 1H), 4.10 (d, J = 11.1, 2.3 Hz, 1H), 3.85 (m, 1H), 3.74 (d, J = 11.1, 5.9 Hz, 1H), 3.68 (m, 1H), 3.61 (m, 1H), 3.54 (m, 1H), 3.48–3.51 (m, 1H), 3.37–3.43 (m, 1H), 3.27 ppm (m, 1H); 13C-NMR (DMSO): δ = 138.4 (C-1), 130.4 (C-2, C-3, C-5, C-6), 130.2 (C-4), 105.3 (C-1''), 103.0 (C-1'), 77.3 (C-3'), 76.6 (C-5'), 74.8 (C-2''), 74.7 (C-2'), 73.2 (C-7), 70.9 (C-4'), 70.3 (C-6'), 66.8 ppm (C-5''). Compound 6 was identified as 2-phenylethyl-β-primeveroside, which had been synthesized [20]. It is reported here as an isolated natural product for the first time.
3.4. Acid Hydrolysis of Compound 1
Compound 1 (5.0 mg) was dissolved in 5.0 mL of 2 N HCl, heated at 90 °C for 2 h, and then partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. Aglycon isorhametin was recovered from the ethyl acetate layer and idertified by direct comparison with an authentic sample. The water layers identified by comparison with an authentic sample by TLC analysis. Sugars liberated from compound 1 were identified as arabinose and glucose [21].
3.5. Antisepsis Activity
Antifungal activities were assayed using amphotericin as positive control. Four fungi (Rhizoctonia cerealis, Botrytis cinerrea, Thanatephorus cucumeris, Valsa mali) were obtained from the Microbe Laboratory of Northwest Sci-Tech University of Agriculture and Forestry, and were identified by Li Xiao-Ming, senior laboratorian. The growth of the hyphae method was adopted to study the compound’s antifungal activity [22]. Every treatment was repeated three times, after cultivation for 72 h at 28.8 °C in constant temperature culture box.
4. Conclusions
In this paper, one new flavonol glycoside, one natural product isolated for the first time and other phenolic compounds were isolated from the Callianthemum genus. The 2-D NMR data of four known compounds 2–4 were first given. The compounds 1 and 4 exhibited certain antifungal activity. This research provides strong support for further study of Callianthemum taipaicum.
