Isolation of Biologically Active Compounds from the Flower Petals of Carthamus tinctorius L.

홍화(Carthamus tinctorius L.)로부터 활성물질의 분리

The MeOH extracts obtained from the flower petals of Carthamus tinctorius were solvent-fractionated with EtOAc, n-BuOH, and $H_2O$, successively. From the n-BuOH extract 2 flavonoid compounds were isolated through the repeated silica gel column chromatographies. From not only the results of physico-chemical data including HMBC but also the adaptation of acid hydrolysis, the chemical structures of the compounds were determined as $3-O-[{\beta}-D-glucopyranosyl(1{\rightarrow}2)\;{\beta}-D-glucopyranosyl]\;kaempferol$ and $3-O-[{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1{\rightarrow}6)\;{\beta}-D-glucopyranosyl]\;kaempferol$. The compounds exhibited $IC_{50}$ values in Grab2-Shc activity to be 43 and $47{\mu}g/ml$, respectively.

홍화 MeOH 추출물의 n-BuOH 분획으로부터 silica gel column chromatography를 반복하여 2종의 flavonoid 배당체를 분리, 정제하였다. 화합문의 화학구조를 HMBC를 포함한 NMR, MS, IR과 같은 기기분석 결과와 산가수분해반응을 이용하여 결정, 각각 $3-O-[{\beta}-D-glucopyranosyl(1{\rightarrow}2)\;{\beta}-D-glucopyranosyl]\;kaempferol$ 및 $3-O-[{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1{\rightarrow}6)\;{\beta}-D-glucopyranosyl]\;kaempferol$로 동정하였다. 각 화합물은 Grb2-Shc 결합저해활성$(IC_{50}:43,\;47\;{\mu}g/ml)$을 나타내었다.
