Two new cadinane-type sesquiterpenoid glycosides from with anti-inflammatory activities.

Two new cadinane-type sesquiterpenoid glycosides, dryopteristerpeneA () and dryopteristerpeneB (), were isolated from the aqueous extract of . Their structures were determined by spectroscopic data analysis and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculations. Compounds and exhibited inhibition on nitric oxide production in lipopolysaccharide induced RAW 264.

The Crystallisation, Microphase Separation and Mechanical Properties of the Mixture of Ether-Based TPU with Different Ester-Based TPUs.

The difference in compatibility at the molecular level can lead to a change of microphase separation structure of thermoplastic polyurethanes blend systems, which will improve their thermal and mechanical properties. In this study, TDI-polyester based TPU was blended with MDI-polyether-based TPU and MDI-polyester based TPU, with different ratios. In the blend system, the obvious reduction of the melting temperature of the high-temperature TDI-polyester based TPU component indicates its hard segments can be mutually integrated with the other component.

[A new phloroglucinol compound from Dryopteris fragrans].

Two phloroglucinol compounds(1-2) were isolated and purified from 95% ethanol extract of Dryopteris fragrans through various column chromatographies on silica gel, Sephadex LH-20, medium pressure column chromatography, and preparative HPLC. Their structures were elucidated as 2',4',6'-trihydroxy-5'-methyl acetate-3'-methyl-1'-butyrophenone(1) and aspidinol B(2) based on their chemical and physicochemical methods and spectroscopic data. Compound 1 is a new phloroglucinol compound named "dryofraginol".

Two new glycosides from Dryopteris fragrans with anti-inflammatory activities.

Phytochemical investigation on the aqueous extract from Dryopteris fragrans led to the isolation of one new chromone glycoside, frachromone C (1), and one new coumarin glycoside, dryofracoulin A (2), together with one known undulatoside A (3). Their structures were elucidated by a combination of 1D and 2D NMR, HRMS, and chemical analysis. Compounds 1-3 exhibited inhibition on nitric oxide production in lipopolysaccharide induced RAW 264.
