Abstract

Four new sesquiterpenes (1-4), one new alkaloid (5), and one new benzenoid glycoside (6) were characterized from Lindera aggregata, and their structures were elucidated according to their spectrometric analytical data. Among these isolates, 3 and 4 were constructed as possessing unprecedented carbon skeletons from the natural source. Some of these purified constituents were examined for their anti-inflammatory bioactivity. Among the tested compounds, linderaggredin C (3), (+)-N-methyllaurotetanine, and (+)-isoboldine displayed the significant inhibition of superoxide anion generation in human neutrophils with IC50 values of 7.45 ± 0.74, 8.36 ± 0.11, and 5.81 ± 0.59 μM, respectively.

Keywords: Alkaloid; Anti-inflammatory; Benzenoid glycoside; Elastase release; Sesquiterpene; Superoxide anion generation.
