Abstract

Four new special compounds with character of an iriflophene unit and a flavonoid unit connecting via a furan ring were isolated from the roots of Sedum aizoon L. Their corresponding structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analysis. The in vitro anti-proliferative activities against BXPC-3, A549, and MCF-7 tumor cell lines were evaluated. Compounds 3 and 4 exhibited moderate cytotoxic activities with IC50 ranging from 24.84 to 37.22 μmol L−1, which was capable for further drug exploration.

Highlights

  • Sedum aizoon L., is an endemic plant, named ‘jingtiansanqi’ in folk medicine

  • Four new special adducts of iriflophene and flavonoids connecting via a furan ring were discovered

  • The dimers of iriflophene and flavonoids were reported for the first time, which enriched the chemical constituents of the Crassulaceae family
