Olean-18-ene triterpenoids from Celastraceae species inhibit HIV replication targeting NF-kB and Sp1 dependent transcription
摘要:
In the present study we report the isolation of nine new olean-18-ene triterpenes (1-9), along with three known ones (10-12), from Cassine xylocarpa and Maytenus jelskii. Their stereostructures have been elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analysis, including 1D and 2D NMR techniques (COSY, ROESY, HSQC and HMBC), and spectrometric methods. The natural compounds and derivatives 13-15 have been tested for their potential as inhibitors of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 replication. Five compounds from this series displayed potent antiviral activity with IC(50)s in the micromolar range (1, 3, 4, 7 and 8) being 1 and 8 the most active compounds. The target of these compounds was different from antiretroviral drugs currently licensed as they act as inhibitors of enhancer-dependent transcription. The structure-activity relationships were established based on the regiosubstitution and oxidation degree of the triterpene scaffold, revealing that these aspects were able to modulate the selectivity and intensity of HIV inhibition.

Epoxidation of alnus-5-en-3β-yl acetate with m-chloroperbenzoic acid gave a 5β,6β-epoxide as a main product together with a 5α,6α-epoxide as a minor product. Treatment of the α-epoxide with BF3·OEt2 afforded a 1(10),5-diene and a mixture of 6α-hydroxy-12- and -18-ene derivatives. The 12-ene was converted into daturadiol (=olean-12-ene-3β,6β-diol).
