Minutifloroside, a New Bis-Iridoid Glucoside with Antifungal and Antioxidant Activities and Other Constituents from Palicourea minutiflora

Abstract

A new bis-iridoid glucoside minutifloroside (1) was isolated from Palicourea minutiflora, together with asperuloside, (-)-epicatechin, catechin, quercetin, rutin, ursolic acid, oleanolic acid, daucosterol and two monoterpenic indole alkaloids strictosidinic acid and vincosamine. Structural characterization of the compounds was established on their spectral data basis, mainly mass spectrometry (MS) and 1D and 2D nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The bis-iridoid showed high activity against Candida albicans strain and antioxidant activity.

Introduction

Iridoids are monoterpenoids found in plenty of plants families and are present in a number of folk medicinal species.11 Berger, A.; Fasshuber, H.; Schinnerl, J.; Robien, W.; Brecker, L.; Valant-Vetschera, K.; J. Ethnopharmacol. 2011, 138, 756.,22 Moreira, F. M.; Vieira, I. J. C.; Braz-Filho, R.; Am. J. Plant Sci. 2015, 6, 2612. These bioactive metabolites were considered chemotaxonomic markers in the Rubiaceae family and exhibit remarkable biological and pharmacological properties such as neuroprotective, antitumor, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, antioxidant, antiprotozoal and antiallergic.33 Dinda, B.; Debnath, S.; Banik, R.; Chem. Pharm. Bull. 2011, 59, 803.,44 Liu, Z.-H.; Hou, B.; Yang, L.; Ma, R.-J.; Li, J.-Y.; Hu, J.-M.; Zhou, J.; RSC Adv. 2017, 7, 24940.

The presence of dimer iridoids was found in species of Rubiaceae, mainly those belonging to the genus Saprosma, Paederia, Mussaenda, Lasianthus, Randia and Asperula.55 Dinda, B.; Chowdhury, D. R.; Mohanta, B. C.; Chem. Pharm. Bull. 2009, 57, 765.

The genus Palicourea (Rubiaceae) is taxonomically complex and previous phytochemical studies demonstrate the remarkable presence of quinolinic and monoterpenoid indole alkaloids,66 Berger, A.; Tanuhadi, E.; Brecker, L.; Schinnerl, J.; Valant-Vetschera, K.; Phytochemistry 2017, 143, 124.

Therefore, as part of the investigative efforts to find compounds from Rubiaceae of the Northeastern Brazil flora, this work reports the first chemical study of aerial parts from Palicourea minutiflora, endemic species of Atlantic Forest from Brazil. The MeOH extract was investigated resulting in the isolation and structural elucidation of a new bis-iridoid glucoside, minutifloroside (1), and the known iridoid asperuloside (2), the two monoterpenic indole alkaloids strictosidinic acid (3) and vincosamine (4), the flavonoids (-)-epicatechin, catechin, quercetin, and rutin, along with ursolic acid, oleanolic acid and daucosterol. The isolation of the vincosamine (4) and (-)-epicatechin has been reported for the first time in genus Palicourea. This paper deals with the isolation and structure elucidation of the new compound and the assessment of antifungal and antioxidant activities.

Experimental

General experimental procedures

Column chromatography (CC) was performed either over silica gel 60 (Merck, 70-230 mesh) or Sephadex LH-20 (Sigma-Aldrich). Analytical thin layer chromatography (TLC) was performed on precoated silica gel plates (TLC Silica gel 60F254 from Merck) and the compounds were detected by UV light (250 and 366 nm) and by spraying with chromogenic agents including p-anisaldehyde-H2SO4 and H2SO4:MeOH solution, followed by heating at 150 ºC or by spraying with Dragendorff solution.

Optical rotations were measured in H2O in a PerkinElmer 343 digital polarimeter at 20 ºC and 589 nm, with an optical cell path of 10 mm. High-resolution electrospray ionization Fourier transform mass spectrometry (ESI-FT-MS) data were performed using a Q-Exactive system (Thermo Fischer Scientific) constituted of a heated electrospray ionization (HESI-II) probe source and a hybrid mass analyzer, quadrupole-Orbitrap. The samples mass spectra were acquired in negative mode. The extract solution was injected by direct infusion with a flow rate of 10 µL min-1. The experimental parameters to ESI(-)-FT-MS analysis were as follows: spray voltage of 4.5 kV, capillary temperature of 300 ºC and s-lens of 70 V. For collision, it was applied high collision dissociation (HCD) of 10 and 20 eV. The Xcalibur 3.0.63 software (Thermo Fisher Scientific) was used to acquire and process the data. The exact mass from the m/z of each ion was compared with theoretical m/z to assign the molecular formula with an error less than 5 ppm. ESI(+)-MS data was acquired using a Premier XE triple quadrupole mass spectrometer (Waters Co.) running in the positive and negative ion mode. Major ESI(+)- and ESI(-)- S source parameters were as follow: capillary voltage of 2.0-3.5 kV, cone voltage of 10-45 V and the quadrupole was set to unitary resolution.

The nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra were recorded on a Varian-Mercury plus spectrometer operating at 300.06 (1H) and at 75.45 MHz (13C), respectively, and D2O as solvent.

Plant material

The aerial parts (leaves and branches) of P. minutiflora were collected in January 2014, at the Reserva Particular do Patrimônio Natural Serra Bonita (Camacan, Bahia State, Northeast of Brazil, geographical coordinates 15º23’30”S; 39º33’55”W). Voucher specimens (No. 141.214) were deposited at the Centro de Pesquisa do Cacau (CEPEC) and identified by Dr A. M. Amorim (Universidade Estadual de Santa Cruz) and authenticated by C. M. Taylor (Missouri Botanical Garden, MO).

Extraction and isolation

Dried powdered aerial parts (600.0 g) were extracted by maceration with MeOH at room temperature and concentrated under vacuum to yield 85.3 g of MeOH crude extract. Part of MeOH crude extract (10.0 g) was dissolved in a mixture of MeOH:H2O (1:1 v/v) and then successively partitioned with different solvents to give n-hexane (HF, 0.96 g), CHCl3 (CF, 0.12 g), EtOAc (AcF, 3.95 g) and the remaining hydromethanolic (HMF, 4.97 g) fractions.

The HMF fraction (3.0 g) was subjected to column chromatography on Sephadex LH-20, using MeOH as eluent to obtain 201 fractions, which after TLC analysis were pooled into eight subfractions (HMF1-HMF8). HMF7 was also submitted to successive Sephadex LH-20 columns, by elution with MeOH leading to the isolation of compound 3 (16.1 mg). The subfraction HMF8 (521.5 mg) was applied to a Sephadex LH-20 column eluted with MeOH yielding 7 subfractions (HMF8.1-HMF8.7). From fraction HMF8.2, it was obtained a precipitate, compound 1 (2.0 mg) as amorphous brown solid.

The AcF fraction (3.05 g) was chromatographed on a Sephadex LH-20 column eluted with MeOH to give 255 fractions, which were grouped into 12 fractions after TLC analysis (AcF1-AcF12). AcF1 (310.5 mg) was submitted to CC over silica gel 60 (70-230 mesh) and eluted with a gradient of CHCl3:MeOH yielding 7 subfractions (AcF1.1-AcF1.7). From AcF1.6 itwas obtained the quercetin (5.6 mg). The fraction AcF3 (219.2 mg) was submitted to purification on preparative TLC (CHCl3:MeOH:H2O, 7:2:1) to afford compound 2 (6.2 mg). The AcF5 and AcF6 fractions (496.9 and 691.6 mg) were subjected on Sephadex LH-20 column eluted with MeOH to give 99 and 98 fractions each. The fractions were combined based on their TLC profile into 7 subfractions, respectively (AcF5.1-7 and AcF6.1-7). Subfractions AcF5.3 and AcF6.5 showed precipitates, which were washed with CHCl3 and provided the flavonoids (-)-epicatechin (5.5 mg), catechin (2.0 mg) and rutin (12.0 mg). Subfraction AcF6.7 (114.3 mg) was analyzed by preparative TLC (CHCl3:MeOH:H2O, 6:3:1) and this procedure isolated the compound 4 (6.3 mg).

The HF fraction (0.96 g) was fractionated by CC over silica gel eluted with n-hexane and mixtures of n-hexane/EtOAc in order of increasing polarity (Hex, Hex:EtOAc 10-90%) providing the steroid daucosterol (15.2 mg).

Antifungal assay

For susceptibility testing, we used the broth microdilution method according to the standards of the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (M27-A3),12 with some modifications for natural products.13 The experiment was performed with standard strains: Candida albicans (ATCC 90028) and C. glabrata (ATCC 90030). The final cellular density of the yeast was adjusted to 0.5-5 × 103 colony-forming units (CFU) mL-1 in RPMI (Roswell Park Memorial Institute, Gibco) with L-glutamine (without sodium bicarbonate) and 0.165 M 3-(N-morpholino)propanesulfonic acid (pH 7.2). The test was performed in flat-bottom 96-well microtiter plates (Techno Plastic Products, Switzerland). For the assay with compound 1, we tested concentrations of 1250 to 9.765 µg mL-1 and fluconazole (Sigma) was used as reference antifungal drug. The plates were incubated at 35 ºC for 48 h. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of compound 1 was considered the lowest concentration at which no fungal growth was evident, by visual reading.

Antioxidant assay

The radical scavenging capacity of the bis-iridoid (1) was investigated from their ability to reduce the radical 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH ) by TLC bioautography analysis.1414 Simões-Pires, C. A.; Queiroz, E. F.; Henriques, A. T.; Hostettmann, K.; Phytochem. Anal. 2005, 16, 307. The experiment was performed with Macherey-Nagel precoated silica gel 60 F254 plates (Düren, Germany) as the stationary phase and CHCl3:MeOH:H2O (6:3:1) as the mobile phase. After application of the compound 1 (1.0 mg mL-1) and development, the plate was immersed for 2 s in 0.25% (m/v) DPPH methanolic solution. The antiradical activity results appeared as yellow spots against the purple-blue background. The flavonoid rutin was used as positive control.1515 Chapla, V. M.; Zeraik, M. L.; Cafeu, M. C.; Silva, G. H.; Cavalheiro, A. J.; Bolzani, V. S.; Young, M. C. M.; Pfenning, L. H.; Araujo, A. R.; J. Braz. Chem. Soc. 2018, 29, 1707.

The structures of known compounds were identified and elucidated using a combination of spectroscopic techniques (1H, 13C NMR and 2D NMR) and by comparisons with literature data.16-25

Figure 1
Chemical structure of compounds 1-4 isolated from aerial parts of Palicourea minutiflora.

The structure of the new compound 1 was elucidated by spectrometric methods, including 1D and 2D NMR experiments and HRESIMS.

Compound 1 was isolated as a brown amorphous powder, [a] D20 = -65.0º (H2O), and the molecular formula was assigned as C32H14O21, based on its negative ion HRESIMS, through the precursor ion peak of m/z 761.21472 [M - H]-.

The MS/MS spectra (Supplementary Information Figures S8 and S9) for m/z 761.21472 presented four main pathways. The first two pathways proposed (Scheme 1) the formation of the ions of m/z 717.2242 ([M - H - (CO2)]-) (CO2, 43.9898) and of m/z 419.1190 ([M - H - (C15H18O9)]-) (C15H18O9, 342.0951), that were formed from the decarboxylation of the deprotonated molecule, and a hydroxyl group rearrangement, respectively. The hydroxyl group rearrangement was proposed as an analogous mechanism to dehydration reactions by eliminating a water molecule and forming double bond.26 The other two pathways (Scheme 2), that formed the ions of m/z 389.1084 ([M - H - (C16H20O10)]-) (C16H20O10, 372.1056) and of m/z 227.0556 ([M - H - (C22H30O15)]-) (C22H30O15, 534.1585), were proposed toward neutral loss of the molecule C16H20O10 by typical remote hydrogen rearrangement,26,27 and the formation of the ion m/z 227.0556 ([C10H11O6]-) corresponding to regular profile observed in study of iridoid glycosides fragmentation forming epoxide moiety of the neutral molecule C22H30O15 (534.1585) (Scheme 2).28 It was also observed that the ion of m/z 389.1084 ([C16H21O11]-) fragmented by water loss to the ion of m/z 371.0978.26,28 The fragment of m/z 227.0556 may be formed from the precursor ion and the product ion of m/z 389.1084.28,29 This ion presents several fragments, providing more information of the structure resulting in two possible ions pathways, one by its decarboxylation resulting in the ions of m/z 183.0657 ([C9H11O4]-) and the other fragment of m/z 209.0450 ([C10H9O5]-) was formed by elimination of a water.28

The 1H and 13C NMR spectra indicated the presence of the signals of two distinct moieties of an iridoid glucoside structure and suggested this compound is a bis-iridoid glucoside which is hereafter referred to as units A and B (Table 1). The 1H NMR spectrum showed signals at d 7.66 (brs, H-3), 4.99 (d, J 8.8 Hz, H-1), 4.88 (m, H-6), 6.03 (brs, H-7), 4.47 (d, J 15.9 Hz, H-10a), 4.27 (d, J 15.9 Hz, H-10b) of unit A, based on analysis of the heteronuclear multiple quantum correlation (HMQC), 1H-1H correlation spectroscopy (COSY) and heteronuclear multiple bond correlation (HMBC) spectra. Signals at d 4.86 in the 1H NMR and at d 101.9 in the 13C NMR spectra stand for the terminal group of the sugar. In the nuclear Overhauser effect spectrum (NOESY), a signal at d 2.66 (H-9) correlated with 4.99 (H-1), 3.11 (H-5) and 4.88 (H-6) indicating that these bonds have the same cis-configuration. The moiety (unit A) was established by comparing their spectroscopic data with those reported for deacetylasperulosidic acid.30

The remaining spectral data revealed a second iridoid unit (part B) of the new bis-iridoid. Signals at d 7.40 (brs, H-3), 5.26 (d, J 5.9 Hz, H-1), 4.61 (m, H-6), 5.84 (brs, H-7), 4.31 and 4.25 (d, J 15.0, H-10a,b). The terminal group of the sugar was revealed by signals at d 4.79 in the 1H NMR and at d 101.6 in the 13C NMR spectra. In the NOESY spectrum, a signal at d 3.14 (H-9) correlated with 5.29 (H-1) and 3.04 (H-5) indicating the cis-junction between the two rings and the O-glycosyl residue C-1” with a b configuration. The 1H and 13C NMR data of the moiety indicated signals similar to those of scandoside,30 and further confirmed by the detailed analyses of 1H-1H COSY and HMBC spectra. Further proof of the linkage was obtained from the HMBC correlations between H-6’ at d 3.77 (m) of the unit A and C-6” d 66.8 of precoated unit B, and by extensive analysis in mass (MS/MS) experiment.

The compound 1 was assayed for their antifungal activities against the yeasts C. albicans and C. glabrata by broth microdilution method. This compound exhibited the highest antifungal activity in C. albicans than C. glabrata species. The MIC was 9.765 µg mL-1 for C. albicans and killed at C. glabrata at 1250 µg mL-1.

The capacity to scavenge DPPH radical using TLC bioautography method was also carried out with compound 1.14 The antioxidant activity was positive for compound 1 at 1 mg mL-1 by visualization of a yellow spot against the purple background.

Conclusions

In summary, in this study two monoterpenic indole alkaloids, four flavonoids and three terpenoids were isolated from the methanolic extract from P. minutiflora Müll. Arg., including asperuloside and a novel bis-iridoid, minutifloroside. This bis-iridoid exhibited high antifungal activity against C. albicans and showed antioxidant capacity.
