[reaction: see text] Total syntheses of seven biologically important lignan natural products, including (-)-arctigenin, (-)-matairesinol, and (-)-alpha-conidendrin, by way of a highly stereoselective domino radical sequence is presented. The reported stereochemistry of the natural product 7-hydroxyarctigenin is shown to be erroneous; a diastereoisomeric structure is assigned to the natural product.

Arctigenin is a bioactive dibenzylbutyrolactone-type lignan exhibiting various pharmacological activities. The neuroprotective effects of arctigenin were demonstrated to be mediated via inhibition of AMPA and KA type glutamate receptors in the somatosensory cortex of the rat brain. The aim of this study was to compare the effects of arctigenin with matairesinol and trachelogenin on synaptic activity in rat brain slices.

Introduction: The total lignans from Fructus arctii (TLFA) is a mixture of a series of lignans isolated from dried ripe fruit of Arctium lappa L. We previously reported on the pharmacological activity of TLFA that is related to diabetes. An accurate and practical TLFA quantitative analysis method for utilising it needs to be established.

Phytochemical investigation of the aerial parts obtained from the Turkish plant Centaurea kotschyi subsp. persica led to the isolation of nine sesquiterpene lactones belonging to the guaiane class, including the undescribed kotschyols A and B, a monoterpene lactone (daphnauranin E), four known lignans (matairesinol, matairesinoside, arctiin and arctigenin) and an undescribed dihydrobenzofuran neolignan (4-O-glucosylcrataegifin A). The structures of these compounds were defined by spectroscopic analysis, including ECD and 1D/2D NMR, and chemical conversion.

Seven sesquiterpene lactones, chlorophyssopifolin E (), aguerin B (), repdiolide triol (), solistitiolide (), aitchisonolide (), sinicin B (), cynaropicrin (), along with four lignans arctigenin (), arctiin (), matairesinol (), and matairesinoside () were isolated for the first time from the aerial parts of Bornm. Among the isolated compounds, aguerin B () showed the most cytotoxic activity against MCF7 cell lines with IC value of 18.9 μM.
