[0019] Example 1

[0020] Extraction of β-costus acid:

[0021] The wild-collected Hexaphyllum pterocarpa was dried and crushed (5 kg), then soaked in methanol reagent, extracted three times at room temperature, and finally concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain 8 L of crude extract. The crude extract was extracted with equal amounts of petroleum ether and ethyl acetate (each used 3 times) to obtain a petroleum ether layer (68 g) and an ethyl acetate layer (55 g). The ethyl acetate layer was then subjected to silica gel column chromatography using a silica gel column (10×100 cm), eluted with petroleum ether-acetone (100:1-1:1), and each sample obtained by the gradient was subjected to thin layer chromatography and then heated with sulfuric acid for color development (some samples had a darker tailing phenomenon during color development, making it difficult to distinguish between different samples, which could be improved by adding 0.1% formic acid to the developing agent). The same components were combined to obtain 8 parts (numbered as Fr.1-Fr.8 in the order of elution).

[0022] The Fr.4 (45.6 g) fraction was first purified by MCI column chromatography with a mobile phase of 10%-90% methanol-water gradient elution. When the sample flushed out under the condition of 10% methanol-water became significantly less or no sample was flushed out, the mobile phase was replaced with 20% methanol-water. The same was true for the rest of the process. Each time the mobile phase concentration was changed, 10% methanol was added to finally obtain 8 parts (4A-4H). Fraction 4D (10.5 g) was obtained when the ratio of methanol to water was 50%. The main thin layer chromatography spot plate was heated with persulfate and the color turned dark blue (the developing agent was petroleum ether: ethyl acetate = 5:1 and the display agent was 10% concentrated sulfuric acid). Fraction 4D was further eluted by normal silica gel column chromatography (the mobile phase was petroleum ether-ethyl acetate = 40:1-4:1) gradient elution to obtain 5 fractions (4D1-4D5). Fraction Fr.4D2 (3.9 g) was obtained when the ratio of petroleum ether: ethyl acetate was 10:1. This part continued to be eluted by Sephadex LH-20 gel column chromatography (the eluent was a mixed solution of methanol-dichloromethane = 6:4) to remove certain impurities and pigments. The purified sample was then purified by HPLC (liquid phase conditions: the chromatographic column was YMC-pack ODS-A (5 μm, 10×250 mm), mobile phase was 58% acetonitrile water, flow rate was 3 mL / min, tR=59 min), and finally the target product was obtained.

[0023] Structure confirmation:

[0024] Example 1 The target product obtained by 13 C-NMR and DEPT detection showed that the compound had 15 carbon signals, including 1 methyl, 8 methylene, 2 methine and 4 quaternary carbons. Combined with ESI-MS, its molecular formula was determined to be C 15 H 22 O2, molecular weight 234 (m / z: 233 [MH] - ).

[0025] The NMR data are as follows: 1 H-NMR(500MHz, CD3Cl3)δ:2.3(1H,m,H-1),2.01(1H,m,H-1),1.58(1H,m,H-2),1.52(1H,m,H-2),1.5 9(1H,m,H-3),1.34(1H,m,H-3),1.89(1H,d,J=11.3Hz,H-5),1.66(1H,m,H-6),1.22(1H,m,H-6),2.5 3(1H,m,H-7),1.61(1H,m,H-8),1.46(1H,m,H-8),1.59(1H,m,H-9),1.28(1H,m,H-9),6.31(1H,s,H- 13),5.68(1H,s,H-13),0.55(3H,s,H-14),4.40(1H,d,J=1.5Hz,H-15),4.70(1H,d,J=1.5Hz,H-15). 13 C NMR (150MHz, CDC l3 ,)δ:36.8(C-1),23.4(C-2),41.8(C-3),150.7(C-4),49.8(C-5),29.9(C-6),39.3(C-7),27.3(C- 8),41.0(C-9),36.8(C-10),145.3(C-11),172.5(C-12),124.8(C-13),16.4(C-14),105.5(C-15).

[0026] After analysis, the product extracted in Example 1 was β-costus acid.

[0027] The antibacterial activity of the β-costus acid extracted in Example 1 was evaluated, and the results are shown in Table 1. As shown in Table 1, at a mass concentration of 100 μg / mL, β-costus acid has an inhibitory effect on the mycelial growth of six tested plant pathogens, including tobacco Phytophthora, tobacco oxysporum Fusarium, tobacco brown spot pathogen, citrus gloeosporium Colletotrichum, coffee berry anthracnose and tomato gray mold. It shows a good inhibitory effect on the mycelial growth of tobacco Phytophthora, tobacco oxysporum Fusarium and citrus gloeosporium Colletotrichum, with the inhibition rates reaching 94.64%, 72.55% and 70.46%, respectively.
