Twenty-four racemic acylphloroglucinol meroterpenoids were isolated from Dryopteris crassirhizoma, including eighteen unusual structures and a major component filixic acid ABA. The dimeric acylphloroglucinol derivatives possess unprecedented skeletons of mixed acylphloroglucinol and sesquiterpene biosynthetic origin. The stereochemistries of six reported meroterpenoids were reassigned using two intriguing methods. Two of the isolated compounds (13 and 14) showed obvious inhibitory effects on inflammatory response, while another compound (25) exhibited antiviral efficacy against the influenza virus.
Twenty-four racemic acylphloroglucinol meroterpenoids including eighteen unusual stuctures (3 - 10, 13, 14, and 17 -24), and a major component filixic acid ABA (25), were isolated from Dryopteris crassirhizoma. Structurally, the dimeric acylphloroglucinol derivatives possess unprecedented skeletons of mixed acylphloroglucinol and sesquiterpene biosynthetic origin. The stereochemistries of six reported meroterpenoids with undefined chiral centers were reassigned. Two intriguing methods by analyzing a) the regularity of chemical shift variation of protons and carbons around the stereogenic centers, and b) pyridine-induced deshielding effect of hydroxy groups, to discriminate relative configurations of flexible long-chain alcohol with chiral centers separated by three or seven covalent bonds, were successfully applied. A non-enzymatic biosynthesis of 1 -24 was assumed based on a rare single-crystal cluster formed with two diastereomeric enantiomer pairs (& PLUSMN;1/& PLUSMN;2) and chiral HPLC analyses. Meroterpenoids 13 and 14 showed obvious inhibitory effects on NO production in LPS-induced RAW264.7, and suppressed the expression of iNOS, COX-2, IL-1 beta, and IL-18. Their anti-inflammatory activity was closely related to the inhibition of the formation and function of inflammasomes. Additionally, the known 25 showed antiviral efficacy against the influenza viruse A/Puerto Rico/8/1934 (H1N1).
