A new sesquiterpene lactone from Artemisia rubripes nakai.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The chromatographic separation of a methylene chloride extract of Artemisia rubripes led to the isolation of a new sesquiterpene lactone (3), together with four known compounds, a coumarin (2) and three terpenes (1, 4, and 5). Their structures were characterized to be 1beta,6alpha-dihydroxy-4(15)-eudesmene (1), scopoletin (2), 1alpha,4beta-dihydroxy-8alpha-acetoxy-guaia-2,10(14), 11(13)-triene-6,12-olide (3), 1alpha,4beta-dihydroxy-8alpha-acetoxy-guaia-2,9,11(13)-triene-6,12-olide (4), and beta-sitosterol-3-O-beta-D-glycoside (5) by spectroscopic means.

Glandular secreting trichomes (GSTs) are called biofactories because they are active in synthesizing, storing and secreting various types of plant secondary metabolites. As the most effective drug against malaria, artemisinin, a sesquiterpene lactone is derived from GSTs of Artemisia annua. However, low artemisinin content (0.001%~1.54% of dry weight) has hindered its wide application. We inves...
