Abstract
Three new neoclerodane diterpenoids (1–3), two new steroids (4–5), one new monoterpene (6), one new derivative of benzaldehyde (7) and one new iridoid glycoside (8), along with 19 known phenolic compounds, were isolated from Clerodendrum trichotomum. Their structures were established by a combination of detailed spectroscopic analyses (1D and 2D NMR) and high resolution electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy (HRESIMS). The isolated compounds were screened on α-glucosidase inhibitory and the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ) agonist activities, and the results showed that three phenylethanoid glycosides, verbascoside (9), leucosceptoside a (10), and isoacteoside (13), and two flavonoids, apigenin (22) and luteolin (26) showed potent inhibitory effects against α-glucosidase, with IC50 values in the range from 15 to 700 μM. In addition, four flavonoids apigenin 7-O-β-D-glucuronide (19), apigenin (22), luteolin (26), and quercetin (27) exhibited significant PPAR-γ agonistic activities with EC50 values in the range 2.3–24.9 μM.
