Abstract

An investigation of EtOAc extract from the roots of Paeonia lactiflora yielded three new 30-noroleanane triterpenoids paeonenoides L-N (1–3) and one new oleanane triterpenoid paeonenoide O (4) together with 7 known compounds (5–11). Extensive spectrographic experiments were applied to identify the structures of 1–4, and their absolute configurations were unambiguously determined by theoretical calculations of ECD spectra, as well as the single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Compounds 8, 9 and 10 were isolated from the Paeonia genus for the first time. Moreover, compounds 8, 9 and 11 showed inhibitory activities against LPS-induced nitric oxide (NO) production in RAW264.7 macrophages with the IC50 values of 72. 17 ± 4.74, 30.02 ± 2.03 and 28.34 ± 1.85 μM, respectively.
