Mulberrofuran G (1) and isomulberrofuran G (2), a pair of isomeric Diels-Alder-type adducts, were isolated from the root bark of Morus alba L. Isomulberrofuran G (2) as a new IIB-type Diels-Alder-type adduct, was elucidated by extensive (1)H, (13)C, and two-dimensional (2D) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and mass spectrometry (MS) spectroscopic analyses. A fragmentation study on compounds 1 and 2 was performed by high-resolution electrospray ionization (ESI) multistage tandem mass spectrometry linked with ion-trap (IT) and time-of-flight (TOF) mass analyzers (ESI-MS(n)/IT-TOF) in negative mode, which resulted in obviously different fragmentations. In the MS(2) experiments, the characteristic ions at m/z 451 and 439 could be revealed as their respective diagnostic ions. Mulberrofuran G (1) showed moderate activity, inhibiting hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA replication with the IC(50) value of 3.99 μM, according to the anti-HBV assay on the HepG 2.2.15 cell line in vitro.

Mulberry Diels-Alder-type adducts (MDAAs) are a group of structurally unique natural products biosynthetically derived from the intermolecular [4 + 2] cycloaddition of a dehydroprenylphenol and a chalcone. In the current study, ten MDAAs, including an undescribed one, inethermulberrofuran C, were isolated from the root bark of Morus alba. The anti-Alzheimer's disease (anti-AD) properties of these isolates were systematically screened for a series of potential targets (Aβ self-aggregation, tau aggregation, and ChEs) as well as the anti-neuroinflammatory and neuroprotective activities.
