Dihydroflavonol and Flavonol Derivatives from Macaranga Recurvata

Abstract: Two new dihydroflavonol derivatives, macarecurvatins A and B, have been isolated from the leaves of Macaranga recurvata (Euphorbiaceaae), along with the known compounds diisoprenylaromadendrin, glyasperin A and broussoflavonol F. The structures of the new compounds were determined on the basis of spectroscopic evidence. Upon cytotoxic evaluation against P-388 cells, macarecurvatin B showed strong activity with an IC 50 of 0.83 M.

“…Broussoflavonol F and glyasperin A showed antioxidant (DPPH and ABTS assays) activity and inhibited melanin growth in B16 melanoma cells. Some researchers reported the biological function of these compounds as antiplatelet, 25 cytotoxic against P-388 cells, 26 cytotoxic in some cancer cells, 27,28 and xanthine oxidase inhibitors. 29 To our knowledge, this is the first report about broussoflavonol F as an antioxidant and melanin inhibitor in B16 melanoma cells.…”

“…Some of these compounds have also been tested for a number of biological properties, including anticancer, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities [1]. Recently, our laboratory has succeeded to isolate a number of these phenolic compounds, including monoprenylated dihydrochalcones and flavanones from M. trichocarpa [2,3]; geranylated and farnesylated dihydroflavonols from M. gigantea, M. pruinosa, and M. rhizinoides [4][5][6]; prenylated dihydroflavonols from M. lowii and M. recurvata [7,8]; and phenolic derivatives with an irregular sesquiterpenyl side chain from M. pruinosa [9]. As further work on the phytochemistry of this genus, in this paper we report the presence of prenylated dihydrophenanthrenes, trivially named macajavanicins A-C (1-3) (Fig.…”

“…Macaranga produces the secondary metabolites of the flavonoid, stilbenoid, and terpenoid groups, especially in the leaves. Flavonoids and stilbenoids in this genus have a distinctive characteristic, namely, the presence of a terpenyl side chain attached to one or both aromatic cores such as isoprenyl, geranyl, farnesyl, and labdanyl 3–7 . Chalcones, dihydrochalcones, flavones, flavanones, flavonols, and dihydroflavonols are generally found in the leaves.…”
