Hyperisampsins H–M, Cytotoxic Polycyclic Polyprenylated Acylphloroglucinols from Hypericum sampsonii

Six new polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols (PPAPs), named hyperisampsins H–M (1–6), were isolated from the aerial parts of Hypericum sampsonii, together with five known analogs (7–11). The structures of 1–6 were established by extensive spectroscopic analyses, including HRESIMS and NMR. I...

Sumario:Six new polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols (PPAPs), named hyperisampsins H–M (1–6), were isolated from the aerial parts of Hypericum sampsonii, together with five known analogs (7–11). The structures of 1–6 were established by extensive spectroscopic analyses, including HRESIMS and NMR. In addition, the absolute configurations of these new compounds were determined by electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculations. Compounds 1 and 2 represent the first examples of PPAPs possessing a unique γ-lactone ring at C-23, while 3–6 differed from normal PPAPs with an unprecedented 1,2-dioxane ring. Compounds 1–7 were evaluated for their cytotoxic activities against a panel of human cancer cell lines in vitro, of which 3, 4, and 6 exhibited significant cytotoxic activities with IC(50) values ranging from 0.56 to 3.00 μM. Moreover, compound 3 induces leukemia cell apoptotic death, evidenced by activation of caspase-3, degradation of PARP, up-regulation of Bax, and down-regulation of Bcl-2 and Bcl-xl.
