摘要
Anti-inflammatory bioassay-guided compound isolation from the exocarp of the Australian rainforest tree Endiandra insignis (family Lauraceae) has led to the discovery and structural elucidation of unusual alpha, beta-unsaturated twenty-four carbon fatty acids and their positional isomers, insignoic acids A - E (1a - 5c). The stereochemistry and position of the double bond within the aliphatic chain were independently determined via NMR spectroscopy and Ozone-Induced Dissociation (OzID) Mass Spectrometry, respectively. Compounds (1a - 5c) displayed good to moderate anti-inflammatory activity in the range of 8-84 mu M. The low therapeutic index observed when assessing the cell viability in the RAW macrophage cell lines, prompted us to investigate the anticancer potential of these unusual fatty acids. The anti-cancer activity was assessed in A-431 carinoma cell lines and MM649 melanoma cell lines. Insignoic acid C (3a-f) exhibited the highest level of potency with an IC50 value of 5-7 mu M against both the cell lines. The insignoic acids are the first of their kind known for incorporating an alpha-beta unsaturated system flanked next to a keto group with an additional level of oxygenation at C-6 in a 24-carbon fatty acid backbone.
