Abstract
Four undescribed regular rosane-type diterpenoids euphominoids M-P and three undescribed rearranged rosane-type diterpenoids euphomilones C-E were isolated from the whole plants of Euphorbia milii Des Moul., along with nine known compounds. Their structures were elucidated by detailed interpretation of the NMR and mass spectroscopy. The absolute configurations were established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction experiments, as well as comparative analyses of calculated and experimental ECD spectra. Euphominoid M featured a highly oxygenated ring A and a rare four-membered oxygen ring while euphomilones C-E possessed 7/5/6 or 5/7/6 fused ring systems, which were rarely occurring in rosane-type diterpenoids. In the in-vitro bioassays, 19-norrosa1,3,5(10),15-tetraene-2,3-diol and antiquorin showed more potent alpha-glucosidase inhibitory activity than the positive control acarbose while euphominoid C exhibited significant inhibitory activity against both alpha-glucosi-dase and beta-glucuronidase. To the best of our knowledge, it was the first time that rosane-type diterpenoids were reported as beta-glucuronidase inhibitors.
