A novel franchetine type norditerpenoid isolated from the roots of Aconitum carmichaeli Debx. with potential analgesic activity and less toxicity

摘要

Further investigation on the phytochemistry of the plant Aconitum carmichaeli Debx. led to isolate a new franchetine type C 19- diterpenoid alkaloid, guiwuline 1. Its structure was established on the basis of the spectroscopic data (1D and 2D NMR, HRESIMS, UV, IR). In mouse hot-plate test and acute toxicity assay, compound 1 exhibited potential analgesic activity (ED 50, 15 mg/kg) and showed little toxicity to mice (LD 50, 500 mg/kg). The results indicate that compound 1 may be used as a lead molecule to develop novel analgesic agents.
