Abstract
Trimeric phthalides in nature are rarely reported. This research successfully isolated three novel trimeric phthalides, triangesinenolides A-C (1-3), from Angelica sinensis. These compounds, derived from Z-ligustilide via diverse linkage patterns, display intricate polycyclic skeletons. Their structures were confirmed by spectroscopic and crystallographic analyses. Unlike previously identified trimeric phthalides, triangesinenolide C (3) is the first trimeric phthalide synthesized via [2 + 2]/[4 + 2] cycloaddition. In vitro assays evaluated the anti-renal fibrosis activity of trimeric phthalides for the first time.
期刊介绍:
Organic Letters invites original reports of fundamental research in all branches of the theory and practice of organic, physical organic, organometallic,medicinal, and bioorganic chemistry. Organic Letters provides rapid disclosure of the key elements of significant studies that are of interest to a large portion of the organic community. In selecting manuscripts for publication, the Editors place emphasis on the originality, quality and wide interest of the work. Authors should provide enough background information to place the new disclosure in context and to justify the rapid publication format. Back-to-back Letters will be considered. Full details should be reserved for an Article, which should appear in due course.
