Their structures were determined with extensive spectroscopic (UV, IR, HR-ESI–MS, and 1D and 2D NMR) analyses. In addition, compounds 1–8 were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory effects on H9c2 cardiocytes impaired by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Among them, compound 2 and compounds 5–8 exhibited anti-inflammatory effects against LPS-induced inflammation. Graphical abstract
