Antimitotic and Antifungal C-3/C-3″-Biflavanones from Stellera chamaejasme

抄録

Two new C-3/C-3″ biflavanones, chamaejasmenin D (1) and isochamaejasmenin B (2), were isolated from the roots of Stellera chamaejasme, together with five known biflavanones, chamaejasmenin A (3), chamaejasmenin B (4), neochamaejasmin A (5), sikokianin A (6), and chamaejasmenin C (7). Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods, including 2D NMR techniques. Among these compounds, 1—3 demonstrated potent antimitotic and antifungal activity with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of 6.25, 6.25, and 3.12 μg/ml, respectively.
