Abstract:
To study the chemical constituents of
K. oblongifolia, silica gel column chromatography, MCI and Sephadex LH-20 were used to separate the 70% acetone extract of the stems of
K. oblongifolia. The structures of the isolated compounds have been established on the basis of physicochemical and NMR spectroscopic evidence as well as ESI-MS in some cases. Twenty compounds were obtained and identified as heteroclitalignan A (
1), kadsulignan F (
2), kadoblongifolin C (
3), schizanrin F (
4), heteroclitalignan C (
5), kadsurarin (
6), kadsulignan O (
7), eburicol (
8), meso-dihydroguaiaretic acid (
9), kadsufolin A (
10), tiegusanin M (
11), heteroclitin B (
12), (7'
S)-parabenzlactone (
13), angeloylbinankadsurin B (
14), propinquain H (
15), quercetin (
16), kadsulignan P (
17), schizanrin G (
18), micrandilactone C (
19) and (-)-shikimic acid (
20). Compouds
1,
5,
8,
11-
15,
18 and
20 were isolated from this plant
for the first time. Toxicity of compounds
1-
10 were evaluated with zebrafish model to observe the effect on its embryonic development and heart function. The results showed that compounds
7,
9 and
10 caused edema of zebrafish embryo and decreased the heart rate of zebrafish, which exhibited interference effect on heart development of zebrafish.
