The present invention relates to a series of organic compounds and methods of preparation, in particular relates to an ent-kaurene diterpenoid compound and its derivatives, and extraction and preparation methods and use thereof.
Rabdosia rubescens (Hemls.) Hara (family Labiatae of Isodon), also named Donglingcao in traditional Chinese medicine, contains abounding diterpenoid ingredients. There have been more than 500 kinds of diterpenoids separated from that kind of plant by now, among which many of those having ent-kaurene structure have activities including antibacterial activity, cytotoxic activity, anti-tumor activity, activity in inhibiting the mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, insect-antifeeding activity, plant growth regulation activity anti-inflammatory activity, regulation of cardiovascular functions, etc. . . . (S Ttanaba and HNishikawa, JpnJBact, 1954(9), 475; M Yamaguchi, M Taniguchi, I Kubo and T Kubota, Agr Biol Chem, 1977(41), 2475; T Arai, Y Koyama, T Suenaga and T Morita, Chemotherapy, 1962(10), 197; M Taniguchi, M Yamaguchi, I Kubo and T Kubota, Agr Bioi Chem, 1979(43), 71; Li Qi, Chen Zheng, Liu Jie, Sun Handong, Lin Zhongwen, Chinese Pharmacological Bulletin, 1992, 8(1), 3; Li Huilan, Wang Maode, Zhang Zhaojiu, Chinese Drugs Bulletin, 1988, 18(10), 46) As a result, it is valuable in theory and in practice to research those plants, especially an ent-kaurene diterpenoid which has an excellent anti-tumor activity.
The structure of ent-kaurene diterpenoid having an α-exomethylene cyclopentanone unit is represented as follows:
The α-exomethylene cyclopentanone unit in that structure has been determined as the anti-tumor active center of those substances after research. (S Ttanaba and H Nishikawa, Jpn J Bact, 1954 (9), 475; T Arai, YKoyama, T Suenaga and T Morita, J Antibiotics Ser, 1963, A16, 132; I Kubo, M Taniguchi, Y Satomura and T Kubota, Agr Biol Chem, 1974(38), 1261; T Arai, Y Koyama, T Morita and H Kaji, Chemotherapy, 1961(9), 403; I Kubo, M Taniguchi and T Kubota, Rev Latinoamer Quim, 1978(9), 157) Oridonin A is the representative of those having such structure. There are many researches now on oridonin A. Zhang Tanmu researching group from Henan Medical University and Fujita researching group from Japan etc. have all done much pharmacological research on oridonin A. It is assuredly proven that oridonin A has antitumor activity both in vitro and in vivo. It also has a broad antitumor spectra and can effectively kill cells including human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell, human hepatoma cell, human cervical carcinoma cell, esophageal carcinoma cell etc. . . . . However, due to oridonin A having low stability and water-solubility and difficulty in controlling the quality of oridonin A's extration solution, the development of oridonin A is confined to the extent. We have synthesized a series of glucoside and ester compounds (ZL99101179.3). It has high practical value and meaning in developing the traditional Chinese herbal medicine R. rubescens (Donglingcao) to develop a new pharmaceutical compound by using diterpenoid ingredient from R. rubescens with a high content and a good anti-tumor activity based on those former research works. We synthesized and found more derivatives having higher anti-tumor activity, less toxicity and better property without destroying its active center structure.

Activity testing method is shown as follows:
Human esophageal carcinoma Ec109 cells were taken as target cells (Henan Institute of Medical Sciences), which were cultured in RPMI1640 medium (GIBCO) with 10% fetal bovine serum (TBD) at 37° C., in 5% CO2. The cells in logarithmic growth phase were inoculated in a 96-well plate, each well containing 6×103 cells. After 24 hours culture, the Jiyuan oridonin A (the compound obtained in example 1), derivative 1 and derivative 2 in different concentrations were added. After continuous 48 hours culture, the medical solution was removed carefully by absorption, followed by washing with RPMI 1640 medium without fetal bovine serum 3 times. 200 μL of medium with 0.2 mg/mL MTT were added in each well and incubated at 37° C. for 4 hours. The supernatant was removed and 200 μL of DMSO was added. After 10 min of shaking, the colorimetric method was used to determine the OD value of the control group and sample groups by an enzyme-labeling instrument with a detection wavelength of 570 nm, and a reference wavelength of 450 nm. The inhibition rate against cells of drugs in different concentrations was calculated and hemi-inhibitory concentration IC50 (μg/mL) was calculated based on cell inhibition curve.
Conclusion: Jiyuan oridonin A and its 20-methoxy derivative, 20-ethoxy derivative all have a higher cytotoxic activity against Ec109 cell, among which the Jiyuan oridonin A has the highest activity.
The inhibitory activity against glycosidase was measured as follows:
40 μl compounds (preparing 0.25 mM solution containing 10 DMSO with 0.067 M potassium phosphate buffer solution in primary screening; preparing solutions containing 10% DMSO with a series of concentration gradients using 0.067 M potassium phosphate buffer solution in IC50 testing) and 40 μl 0.1 u/ml glycosidase (baker's yeast, US Sigma) were added in each well of a 96-well plate. After keeping at 37° C. for 40 min, the reaction substrate, p-nitrophenyl glucoside (2.5 mM, 20 μl), was added in each well, and kept at 37° C. for 5 min. The reaction was terminated by addition of buffer, 0.1 M Na2CO3 100 μl, and the OD value was determined at 405 nm by colorimetric method. 0.067M phosphate buffer containing 10% DMSO was used instead of the compounds in negative control group. Inhibition rate=(1−OD value of experimental group/OD value of negative control group)×100%, the IC50 value was calculated by drawing.
Conclusion: Jiyuan oridonin. A and its 20-methoxy derivative, 20-ethoxy derivative all have certain inhibitory activity against α- and β-glucosidase in vitro.
