Zusammenfassung: | In an ongoing investigation of compounds from natural products that exhibit anti-aging properties, hydroxyhibiscone A (1), a new furanosesquiterpenoid, together with hibiscone D (2), was isolated from the root bark of Hibiscus syriacus. Utilizing UV, IR, NMR, and MS spectroscopic analyses, these chemical structures were revealed. Compounds 1 and 2 were found to posses significant anti-aging properties on the human neutrophil elastase (HNE) assay, exhibiting HNE inhibitory activities with IC∧50 values of 5.2 and 4.6 μM, respectively. |
