By monitoring with a choleretic activity test for rat-duodenum, two new choleretic principles named capillartemisin A (1) and B (2) were isolated from Artemisiae Capillaris Herba ("Inchinko" in Japanese, the aerial part of Artemisia capillaris Thunb.), and their structures were determined on the basis of spectral evidence and by a synthesis of the methyl ester of 1 (1a). Capillartemisin A (1) and B (2) showed more potent and lasting choleretic activity than sodium dehydrocholate and the other hitherto identified choleretic principles of "Inchinko". A new flavonoid isoarcapillin (6) was also chemically elucidated.
通过对大鼠十二指肠的胆汁活性试验进行监测,从茵陈蒿(日语中的 "Inchinko",即茵陈蒿的气生部分)中分离出了两种新的利胆物质,分别命名为
茵陈蒿素 A(1)和 B(2),并根据光谱证据和 1(1a)的甲酯合成确定了它们的结构。
茵陈蒿素 A(1)和 B(2)比脱氢
胆酸钠和其他迄今已确定的 "茵陈蒿 "利胆成分显示出更强效、更持久的利胆活性。此外,还从
化学角度阐明了一种新的黄
酮类物质异
