A new polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinol from Hypericum pseudohenryi

Eight polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols (PPAPs) were isolated from the 95% ethanol extract of Hypericum pseudohenryi by MCI column, silica gel column and preparative HPLC. These compounds were defined as hypseudohenrin L (1), hyperbeanin P (2), furohyperforin (3), furoadhyperforin (4), ascyronone F (5), attenuatumione E (6), hyphenrone T (7) and hyperforatone N (8), compound 1 is a new compound. Compounds 1, 3, 5, 7 showed an inhibitory effect on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced nitric oxide (NO) production in macrophage cells.
