Their structures were elucidated by spectral experiments. At the same time, high-performance liquid chromatographic(HPLC) method was used for the simultaneous determination of the six flavonoid glycosides from the aerial parts ofA. frigida. The separation by gradient elution was performed on a Hypersil ODS-2 column(250 mm×4.6 mm, 5 μm) at 30℃ with acetonitrile and water as the mobile phase, and monitored by absorbance at 276 nm. The parameters of linearity, precision, accuracy and specificity of the method were evaluated. The recovery of the method is 96.50%--98.01%, and linearity(r〉0.9992) was obtained for all the flavonoid glycosides. A high degree of specificity as well as repeatability and reproducibility(relative standard deviation values less than 2.0%) were also achieved. This assay was applied to the determination of six flavonoid glycosides in ten samples. The results indicate that the developed assay method was rapid, accurate, reliable and could be readily utilized as a quantitative analysis method for A. frigida.展开更多

Their structures were elucidated using spectroscopic data(UV, IR, HR-ESI-MS, 1D and 2D NMR, CD), as well as by comparison with those of the literature. Compounds 3–9 were isolated from this genus for the first time. In the in vitro assay, compounds 3, 6, and 7 exhibited stronger anti-inflammatory effects than the positive control curcumin at a concentration of 10 μmol/L.展开更多

Firstly, flavonoid hydroxyls atortho position were more active than the hydroxyls atmeta position in scavenging oxygen-free raidicals, which resulted from the facts that (i) the former were stabilized by forming intramolecular hydrogen bond and (ii)ortho benzocluinone formed in the former structures through resonance, which resulted in large percentage of distribution of spin density or1ortho oxygen and low internal energy. Secondly, electron-attracting effect of ring C of chromone-flavonoids showed some passive efftrts on hydroxyls of ring A, making the OH less active. As ring C had little effect on ring B and hydroxyls of ring B in most flavonoids were atortho position, the rule summarized from experiments showing that hydroxyls of ring B were more active in scavenging oxygen-free radicals was elucidated.展开更多

Their structures were characterized by 2D NMR, IR, ESI-MS, elemental analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Preliminarily H+/K+-ATPase activity evaluation indicated that all the target compounds had a certain inhibitory effect, and compounds Ⅱ and IV exhibited the better inhibitory activity against H+/K+-ATPase than bisabolangelone and the commercial omeprazole with the IC50 of 23.21 and 65.32 pmol/L, respectively. The initial structure-activity analysis suggested that the presence of carbonyl group in six-membered ring and double bond in side-chain seemed to be necessary to the activity.展开更多
