Abstract

Nine diterpenoid alkaloids were isolated from Aconitum georgei Comber belonging to the genus Aconitum in Ranunculaceae family. Their structures were determinated by using HR-ESI-MS and 1 D/2D NMR spectra as geordine (1), yunaconitine (2), chasmanine (3), crassicauline A (4), forestine (5), pseudaconine (6), 14-acetylalatisamine (7), austroconitine B (8), and talatisamine (9). Among them, compound 1 is a previously undescribed aconitine-type C19-diterpenoid alkaloid, and compounds 3, and 5-9 have not previously been isolated from this species. The results of in vitro experiments indicated that new compound 1 possesses mild anti-inflammatory activity, which inhibited the production of NO in LPS-activated RAW 264.7 cells with an inhibition ratio of 29.75% at 50 μM.
