Chemistry of labdanediol from Cistus ladaniferus, L. synthesis of 12-Nor-ambreinolide and α and β-levantenolides
摘要:
Labdanediol, 2. the major component of the neutral part of Cistus ladaniferus L, was transformed into 12-nor-ambreinolide, precursor of ambrox(R), in three steps with an overall yield of 70%. Molecular modelling techniques have been used to determine the stereochemistry of the byproducts of these reactions. The selenylation and elimination reactions of alpha and betalevantanolides, obtained from labdanediol, 2, were used to synthetise alpha and beta-levantenolides.

In the present study, a series of labdane derivatives (2-9) were prepared from labdanediol (1) and their potential as anti-inflammatory agents were evaluated on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated RAW 264.7 macrophages. All compounds were able to inhibit LPS-induced nitric oxide (NO), although compounds 1, 2, 5, 8 and 9 exhibited the most potent effects with a range of IC50 values of 5-15 mu M. Similarly to the inhibitory effects on NO release, these labdane derivatives also inhibited prostaglandin E-2 (PGE(2)) production. However, analysis of cell viability demonstrated that effects on NO release and (PGE(2)) production of compounds 1, 8 and 9 were due to citotoxicity, whereas compound 2 and 5 did not show any effect in the survival of RAW 264.7 macrophages. In addition to these in vitro data, compound 5 also showed anti-inflammatory activity in vivo, when tested in mice. They prevented the extent of swelling in the TPA-induced ear edema model and inhibited MPO activity, showing similar potency to that of the widely used anti-inflammatory drug indomethacin. These results indicate that compound 2 and in particular compound 5 might be used for the design of new anti-inflammatory agents. (C) 2010 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
