Studies on the Natural Products from the Formosan Soft Corals Sarcophyton crassocaule and Paralemnalia thyrsoides / 臺灣海域軟珊瑚Sarcophyton crassocaule與Paralemnalia thyrsoides所含天然物之研究

博士 / 國立中山大學 / 海洋生物科技暨資源學系研究所 / 95 / In order to search for bioactive compounds, we have studied the chemical constituents from the organic extracts of two Formosan soft corals Sarcophyton crassocaule and Paralemnalia thyrsoides. This study had led to the isolation of forty-six natural compounds 1–46, including sixteen new cembrane–type diterpenoids, crassocolides A–P (1–16) and four known cembrane–type compounds 17–20 from S. crassocaule; nineteen new sesquiterpenoids and norsesquiterpenoids, paralemnone (21), isoparalemnone (22), paralemnol (23) and paralemnolins A–P (24–39), along with seven known compounds 40–46 from P. thyrsoides.
The structures of these compounds were established by the detailed spectroscopic analysis (IR, MS, 1D、2D NMR) and by comparison with related physical and spectral data from other known compounds. The absolute configurations of 1-46 were determined using a modified Mosher''s method for 1, 7, 22 and 27. The structures of 5, 21, 24 and 37 were further proven by X-ray diffraction analysis. The cytotoxicity of compounds 1-46 against a limited panel of cancer cell lines was also determined. Also, the activity of compounds 21-28, 35-37 and 41-42 to inhibit the pro-inflammatory iNOS and COX-2 protein expression of LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophage cells has been estimated.
