Abstract

Twelve undescribed sesquiterpenoids, named chlomultiols A-L, involving three lindenane sesquiterpenoid dimers, three eudesmane sesquiterpenoids, three guaiane sesquiterpenoids, and three cadinane sesquiterpenoids, along with four known compounds, were obtained from the whole plant of Chloranthus multistachys. Their structures were determined through spectroscopic techniques (HRESIMS, 1D and 2D NMR). In addition, the absolute and relative configurations of the undescribed compounds were established by using single crystal X-ray crystallography, NOESY and CD spectroscopy. The inhibitory effects of chlomultiols A-M on the production of nitric oxide in RAW 264.7 cells induced by lipopolysaccharide were evaluated. Chlomultiols A-C, and chlomultiols K-L showed moderate anti-inflammatory activities with IC50 values of 3.34 ± 0.73, 15.06 ± 1.08, 13.13 ± 3.99, 6.63 ± 1.11, and 16.16 ± 1.88 μM, respectively.
