Two new thiophene polyacetylene glycosides from Atractylodes lancea

Phytochemical investigation on the rhizomes of Atractylodes lancea led to the isolation of two new thiophene polyacetylene glycosides (1 and 2) and six known compounds (3-8). Their structures were elucidated based on the extensive spectroscopic data (UV, IR, 1D and 2D NMR, and HRESIMS). The absolute configurations of new compounds were established by calculated and experimental circular dichroism. All the compounds were assessed on the lipopolysaccharide-induced NO production in BV2 cells and compounds 3, 7, and 8 showed moderate inhibitory activities. [GRAPHICS] .
