Two new compounds from Cryptoporus volvatus

Publication date: June 2017 Source:Phytochemistry Letters, Volume 20 Author(s): Ling-Yun Zhou, Pan-Pan Li, Jun-Ming Wang, Bin Lu, Yan Hua Two new compounds with the aldehyde group, cryptoporusal A (1) and 9-formyl-4-hydroxy-6, 9-dimethyl-1-O-β-D-xylosopyranosyl-8a,9-dihydro-ace-naphthylen-8-one (2), were isolated from the ethyl acetate extract of the fruiting bodies of Cryptoporus volvatus (Pk.) Hubbard. Their structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic studies, and comparison with literature data. Furthermore, they were evaluated for their in vivo cytotoxicity against five human cancer cell lines and antioxidant activity. Compound 1 exhibited strong cytotoxicity against HL-60 and both showed high ferric reducing capacity. Graphical abstract
