Phenolic metabolites from Hypericum kelleri Bald., an endemic species of Crete (Greece).
Phytochemistry 2018 Februrary
Thirteen compounds were isolated from the aerial parts of Hypericum kelleri Bald., growing as an endemic on the island of Crete (Greece). These compounds comprise four previously unknown prenylated xanthones 1,2-dihydro-3,8-dihydroxy-6-methoxy-1,1,5-tri(3-methylbut-2-enyl)xanthen-2,9-dione (kellerine A), 1,2-dihydro-3,6,8-trihydroxy-1,1,5-tri(3-methylbut-2-enyl)xanthen-2,9-dione (kellerine B), 1,2-dihydro-3,8-dihydroxy-6-methoxy-1,1-bi(3-methylbut-2-enyl)xanthen-2,9-dione (6-methylpatulone), (R/S)-1,3,5-trihydroxy-2-(3-methyl-2-buten-1-yl)-4-[2-(3-methylbut-2-enyl)-3-methylbut-3-enyl]-6-methoxy-9H-xanthen-9-one ((2″R/S)-kellerine C) and the hitherto undescribed depsidone (R/S)-1,3,6-trihydroxy-5-methoxy-2-(3-methyl-2-buten-1-yl)-4-[2-(3-methylbut-2-enyl)-3-methylbut-3-enyl]-11Η-dibenzo[b,e] [1,4]dioxepin-9-one ((2″R/S)-creticine). As known compounds, brevipsidone D, 4-geranyl-2-(2'-isobutyryl)-phloroglucinol, 4-geranyl-2-(2'-methylbutyryl)-phloroglucinol, I3, II8-biapigenin, quercetin, avicularin, pseudohypericin and neochlorogenic acid have been isolated. The structures were elucidated on the basis of their 1D, 2D NMR, CD and MS data. The study confirms the typical occurrence of xanthones in Hypericum section Oligostema (Boiss.) Stef., and is also the first report on the simultaneous isolation of acylphloroglucinols in this section. Furthermore the first evidence of depsidones in the genus Hypericum L. is reported. Cytotoxicity was investigated in HeLa cells for prenylated xanthones and the depsidones. Both triprenylated 1,2-dihydroxanthones (kellerine A and B) showed significant in vitro cytotoxicity with IC50 values of 2.5 ± 0.1 (kellerine A) and 5.9 ± 0.9 (kellerine B) μM, whereas other compounds were less cytotoxic (IC50 > 20 μM).
