Abstract

A total of 18 diterpenoids, including 10 new analogues (1-10), were isolated from Euphorbia antiquorum. The structures were characterized by spectroscopic techniques, and circular dichroism data analysis was adopted to confirm the absolute configurations of 1-10. Compounds 1-9 were classified as ent-atisane diterpenoids, and 10 was assigned as an ent-kaurane diterpenoid. The biological evaluation of nitric oxide (NO) production inhibition was conducted, and all of these isolates showed the property of inhibiting NO generation in lipopolysaccharide-induced BV-2 cells. Further research on molecular docking disclosed the affinities between the diterpenoids obtained and inducible nitric oxide synthase.
