Culcitiolides E–J, Six New Eremophilane-Type Sesquiterpene Derivatives from Senecio culcitioides

摘要

Culcitiolides E–J (1–6), six new eremophilane-type sesquiterpenes, were isolated from the stem of Senecio culcitioides SCH. BIP. (Asteraceae). The structures were determined by detailed NMR spectral analysis. The inhibitory activities of these compounds against nuclear factor κB (NF-κB)-dependent gene expression were assessed. Culcitiolides E, H, and I potently inhibited NF-κB-induced gene expression at 20?μ M .
