Sesquiterpenoids from Teucrium ramosissimum

Abstract

An antiplasmodial bioguided investigation of the EtOAc extract of the aerial parts of Teucrium ramosissimum led to isolation and identification of three sesquiterpenoids, teucmosin, 4α-hydroxy-homalomenol C, 1β,4β,7α-trihydroxy-8,9-eudesmene and two trinorsesquiterpenoids, 4β-hydroxy-11,12,13-trinor-5-eudesmen-1,7-dione and 1β,4β-dihydroxy-11,12,13-trinor-8,9-eudesmen-7-one together with five known sesquiterpenoids, oplopanone, homalomenol C, oxo-T-cadinol, 1β,4β,6β-trihydroxyeudesmane, 1β,4β,7α-trihydroxyeudesmane and four flavonoids, 5-hydroxy-7,4′-dimethoxyflavone, salvigenin, genkwanin and cirsimaritin. The structures and the relative stereochemistry were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic studies including 1D and 2D NMR and mass spectrometry (MS). Homalomenol C, 4β-hydroxy-11,12,13-trinor-5-eudesmen-1,7-dione, oxo-T-cadinol and 1β,4β,6β-trihydroxyeudesmane displayed a significant in vitro antiplasmodial activity against Plasmodium falciparum with IC50 values ranging from 1.2 to 5.0 μg/ml. Furthermore, no cytotoxicity was observed upon the human diploid lung cell line MRC-5 for these compounds.
