Abstract
Two novel polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols (PPAPs), hyperfols A (1) and B (2), and two known biosynthetically related precursors (3 and 4) were isolated from Hypericum perforatum. Compound 1 possesses an unprecedented 2,3-seco-PPAP with a fused 5/5/9/5 tetracyclic skeleton, and 2 features a 30-norPPAP. Their structures were established by spectroscopic analysis, computer-assisted structure elucidation software, and electronic circular dichroism calculations. Moreover, compounds 1 and 4 exhibit significant cytotoxicity against human erythroleukemia cells by inducing cell apoptosis.
