Acylphloroglucinol derivatives with ATP citrate lyase inhibitory activities from Syzygium oblatum Wall.

Nine undescribed acylphloroglucinol derivatives, oblatones A-I, along with three known ones, were isolated from Syzygium oblatum. Their structures were determined on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analysis, including NMR and MS data interpretation. Oblatones A and B possess an alkylated chromanone scaffold featuring a hemiketal moiety. Oblatones C and D are the first acylphloroglucinol derivatives with an α,β-unsaturated ketone lipid chain. Some of the isolates showed inhibitory effects on ATP citrate lyase in vitro. The binding mode of oblatone A was predicted by molecular docking.
