Abstract

Two new seco-prezizaane-type sesquiterpenes, 3,4-dehydroneomajucin (1) and 1,2,3,4-tetradehydroneomajucin (2), were isolated from the fruits of Illicium jiadifengpi. The structure of these compounds was determined using 1D and 2D NMR and ESI-MS. The isolates were evaluated for their anti-hepatitis B virus activities on the Hep G2.2.15 cell line. The inhibitory rates of compounds 1 and 2 on the HBeAg and HBsAg expression were 30.08 ± 3.09% and 11.43 ± 1.92% at a concentrations of 68.00 μM and 7.88 ± 1.21% and 16.96 ± 4.24% at a concentration of 68.50 μM, respectively.
