[0002] I. trichantha is a plant endemic to Central and West Africa in the genus Iodes, and is a medicinal plant used by indigenous tribes in Nigeria and surrounding countries. This plant has played an important role in traditional medicine in Nigeria, where local people use its tubers as medicine and widely apply them to the treatment of various diseases, such as poisoning, constipation, inducing vomiting, and treating malaria. The tubers of I. trichantha are rich in starch. During famine years, local people wash the tubers with water and then eat them. Modern research shows that I. trichantha has various physiological activities such as hypoglycemic, anticonvulsant, sedative, analgesic, and antibacterial effects. Currently, there is little research on the chemical constituents of I. trichantha. Summary of the Invention

[0009] (2) Use petroleum ether, dichloromethane, ethyl acetate, and n-butanol to extract the concentrated solution obtained in step (1) respectively, and concentrate under reduced pressure to obtain a petroleum ether fraction, a dichloromethane fraction, an ethyl acetate fraction, an n-butanol fraction, and a residual water fraction respectively;

[0010] (3) Take the dichloromethane fraction obtained in step (2), and perform normal pressure column chromatography on AB-8 macroporous resin, eluting with ethanol-water to obtain 3 sub-fractions DCM-1 - DCM-3;

[0011] (4) Take the eluate fraction DCM-3 obtained in step (3), and perform normal pressure column chromatography on silica gel, eluting with dichloromethane-methanol to obtain 7 sub-fractions DCM-3-1 - DCM-3-7;

[0013] As a preferred embodiment, the preparation method of the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0014] (1) Weigh dry I. trichantha tubers, crush them, add ethanol with a volume concentration of 80 - 95% to reflux and extract the medicinal materials, with a material-liquid ratio of 1:6 - 20, extract 1 - 3 times, each time for 1 - 3 h, filter and collect the filtrate, combine the filtrates, and concentrate under reduced pressure until the alcohol smell disappears to obtain an extract;

[0059] 3. Structure analysis of the compound

[0060] 3.1 Structure identification of Bisicacinol B(1)

[0061]

[0062] Compound 1 is a white amorphous powder, (c 0.01, MeOH). Combined with 13The \(^{13}\)C NMR data and the quasi-molecular ion peak \(m / z\) 849.5523 ([M + Na]\(^{+}\), \(C\) 39 H 52 O 9 Na calculated to be 849.5517) led to the derivation of the molecular formula \(C\) 51 H 76 O 10 , with an unsaturation degree of 14. In the \(^{1}\)H NMR spectrum of compound 1 (Table 1), signals of 9 methyl protons were shown at \(\delta\) H (1.10, s, \(CH\) 3 -18; 1.04, s, \(CH\) 3 -19; 1.02, s, \(CH\) 3 -23′; 0.81, s, \(CH\) 3 -24′; 1.06, s, \(CH\) 3 -25′; 0.90, s, \(CH\) 3 -26′; 0.99, s, \(CH\) 3 -27′; 1.73, s, \(CH\) 3 -29′; 1.04, s, \(CH\) 3 -30′); 1 signal of a methoxy proton at \(\delta\) H (3.62, s, \(OCH\) 3 -28′). Combining the 13 \(^{13}\)C NMR spectrum and the DEPT spectrum showed that the compound had 51 carbon signals, including 9 methyl carbons, 14 methylene carbons (including 1 oxygenated methylene), 12 methine carbons (including 5 oxygenated methines), 13 quaternary carbons (including 1 oxygenated carbon) and 2 carbonyl carbons. Combining the carbon spectrum (Table 1), the DEPT spectrum and the HSQC spectrum of the compound indicated that there were 51 carbon signals, which could be attributed respectively to: 9 methyl carbons at \(\delta\) C 21.8 (\(CH\) 3 -18), 32.9 (\(CH\) 3 -19), 29.4 (\(CH\) 3 -23′), 17.6 (\(CH\) 3 -24′), 17.8 (\(CH\) 3 -25′), 18.6 (\(CH\) 3 -26′), 22.5 (\(CH\) 3 -27′), 16.3 (\(CH\) 3 -29′), 27.7 (\(CH\) 3 -30′); 1 methoxy carbon at \(\delta\) C 52.3 (\(OCH\) 3 -28); 14 methylene carbons (including 1 oxygenated methylene) at \(\delta\) C30.3 (C-2), 39.8 (C-3), 19.9 (C-11), 22.0 (C-12), 33.7 (C-17), 64.7 (C-20), 48.7 (C-1′), 19.4 (C-6′), 35.7 (C-7′), 39.1 (C-11′), 29.6 (C-15′), 32.6 (C-16′), 32.8 (C-21′) and 35.5 (C-22′); 12 methine carbons (including 5 oxygen-bonded methines) δ C 73.7 (C-1), 61.9 (C-5), 74.8 (C-6), 55.1 (C-9), 40.9 (C-13), 75.0 (C-14), 50.1 (C-16), 69.6 (C-2′), 84.4 (C-3′), 56.8 (C-5′), 49.4 (C-9′) and 127.8 (C-12′); 13 non-hydrogen-bonded carbons (including 1 oxygen-bonded carbon) δ C 34.6 (C-4), 98.0 (C-7), 49.6 (C-8), 42.1 (C-10), 40.2 (C-4′), 39.7 (C-8′), 39.1 (C-10′), 140.4 (C-13′), 46.0 (C-14′), 51.1 (C-17′), 136.0 (C-18′), 139.1 (C-19′) and 40.5 (C-20′); 2 carbonyl carbons δ C 225.7 (C-15) and 178.7 (C-28′).

[0063] The NMR data of Unit I in Compound 1 is highly similar to oridonin, except for one methine (δ C 50.1, C-16) and one methylene (δ C 33.7, C-17) in Unit I, instead of an exocyclic double bond (δ C 153.4, C-16; 120.6, C-17); the NMR data of Unit II in 1 is highly similar to goreishic acid, except for the presence of a methoxy group (δ H 3.62, δ C 52.3, OCH 3 -28′), and C-20 is a non-hydrogen-bonded carbon (δ C 40.5, C-20′), instead of a methine (δ H 2.28, m; δ C 24.8, C-20′). In the HMBC spectrum, CH-16 and C-20 as well as CH 2 -17 and C-19′ / C-20′ / CH 2 -21′ / CH3 The related signal proof units I and II of -30' are connected by a single bond via C-17 and C-20'.

[0064] The relative configuration of Compound 1 was determined by analyzing the NOESY spectrum ( Figure 9 ), and so far, the relevant reports have designated H-5 and H-5' as β-orientations. The NOESY related signals prove that CH 3 -19 / H-5β / H-1 / H-9 is in the β-orientation; according to the H-6 / CH 3 -18 / H-20a and H-20b / H-14 / H-13 / H-16 cross peaks indicate that H-6 / H-13 / H-14 / H-16 / CH 3 -18 is in the α-orientation; the correlation of H-5' / CH 3 -23' and H-3' / H-5' / H-9' / CH 3 -27' / H-16'α indicates that H-3' / H-5' / H-9' / CH 3 -23' / CH 3 -27' is in the α-orientation, and 28-COOCH 3 is in the β-orientation; due to the correlation between 28-COOCH 3 and CH 3 -30', it indicates that CH 3 -30' is also in the β-orientation; from the correlation of CH 3 -24' / H-2' / CH 3 -25' / CH 3 -26', it is inferred that H-2', CH 3 -24', CH 3 -25' and CH 3 -26' are in the β-orientation; through the measurement and calculation of ECD, the absolute configuration of C-16 is determined to be the R configuration, and finally the absolute configuration of Compound 1 is determined to be 1S,5R,6S,7S,8R,9S,10S,13S,14R,16R,2'R,3'R,5'R,8'R,9'R,10'R,14'S,17'S,20'S. Therefore, the complete structure of the new skeleton compound 1 is determined and named Bisicacinol B.

[0065] 3.2 Structure Identification of Bisicacinol C(2)

[0066]

[0067] Compound 2 is a white amorphous powder, (c 0.01,MeOH). Combining 13C NMR data and high resolution mass spectrometry (HRESIMS) gave a quasi-molecular ion peak of m / z 849.5522 ([M+Na], C 39 H 52 O 9 The calculated value of Na is 849.5517), and the molecular formula of the compound can be deduced to be C 51 H 76 O 10 , the unsaturation degree is 14. Its NMR measurement data are highly similar to those of 1 (Table 1), except that H-16 (δ H 2.20), C-16(δ C 54.4) and 1 in H-16 (δ H 2.93), C-16(δ C 50.1), it is speculated that 2 is the 16-diamer of 1; in addition, the coupling constant of H-16 in 2 (J=9.7Hz, d) is different from that in 1 (J=7.2Hz t), which also supports the above speculation. Through ECD measurement and calculation, it was determined that C-16 of 2 was S-configuration, and the absolute configuration of compound 2 was finally determined to be 1S, 5R, 6S, 7S, 8R, 9S, 10S, 13S, 14R, 16S, 2′R, 3′R, 5′R, 8′R, 9′R, 10′R, 14′S, 17′S, 20′S. Therefore, the complete structure of the new skeleton compound 2 was determined and named Bisicacinol C. Compounds 1 and 2 are the first heterodimers of enantiomeric kaurane-type diterpenes and ursane-type triterpenes.

Then, it was taken out and the OD value was measured at a wavelength of 450 nm using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay reader. The IC 50 (half maximal inhibitory concentration) of the compound was calculated using GraphPad Prism 8 software, with 5-FU and Carboplatin as positive controls.

[0082] 5. The experimental results are shown in Table 2

[0083] Table 2 Cytotoxic activities of Compound 1 and 2 (IC 50 : μM)

[0084]

[0085] Experimental conclusion: Through the evaluation of the cytotoxic activities of Compounds 1 and 2, it was found that Compound 1 had strong activities against adenocarcinoma cell line MIAPaCa-2, colon cancer cell line HT-29, lung cancer cell line A549, and liver cancer cell line HepG2, which were superior to Compound 2 and the positive control drug. Compound 2 also showed strong inhibitory activities against colon cancer cell line HT-29 and lung cancer cell line A549. In particular, it had a significant anti-proliferation effect on the A549 cell line, and its effects were stronger than those of the positive drugs 5-FU and Carboplatin, showing the potential to be developed into a new anti-lung cancer drug.

[0086] Example 3

[0087] The antibacterial activity test research of the present invention was carried out according to the following steps:

[0088] 1. Experimental materials and reagents

[0089] Helicobacter pylori (G27 and HP129) and Candida albicans (SC5314 and C5) were all from the laboratory of Professor Bihongkai of Nanjing Medical University. Main culture media and main reagents: Columbia medium, LB medium, selective antibiotics (metronidazole and amphotericin B), serum, etc.

[0090] 2. Preparation of culture media

[0091] Columbia liquid medium: Accurately weigh 29.0 g of Columbia liquid medium, heat and dissolve it in 1000 mL of double-distilled water. After the medium is completely dissolved, autoclave it at 121 °C for 15 min and set aside.

[0092] Columbia blood agar solid medium: Accurately weigh 39.0 g of Columbia blood agar solid medium, heat and dissolve it in 1000 mL of double-distilled water. After the medium is completely dissolved, autoclave it at 121 °C for 15 min. When it is naturally cooled to about 50 °C after autoclaving, quickly add 5% sterile defibrinated sheep blood, mix well, and pour it into a sterile petri dish while it is still hot.

[0093] LB medium: Glucose 15 g / L, yeast extract 10 g / L, peptone 5 g / L, sodium chloride 10 g / L.

[0094] 3. Resuscitation and culture of test strains

[0095] Take out the standard strain of Helicobacter pylori from the -80°C refrigerator and place it at room temperature. Accurately pipette 200 μL of the standard strain and transfer it onto the solid medium. Then use an L-shaped glass rod to spread the strain evenly. Place the culture dish containing the strain into a culture bag, and then put a microaerophilic gas-generating bag into the culture bag. Quickly seal the culture bag and place it in a 37°C constant temperature incubator for 72 hours. After the culture is completed, first identify Helicobacter pylori, and then scrape off the bacterial lawn on the solid medium and transfer it to 50 mL of liquid medium, which is used as the original bacterial solution.

[0096] 4. Determination of MIC

[0097] (1) Prepare the sample solutions of Compound 1 and 2 obtained in Example 1 with a concentration of 2 mg / mL.

[0098] (2) Preparation of the MIC plate: First, add 173.6 μL of the medium to the first well, and then add 6.4 μL of the antibacterial agent. Dilute it serially to the 7th well; do not add the drug to the 8th well and keep 90 μL of the medium as the control for adding bacteria without adding the drug.

[0099] (3) Preparation of the bacterial solution: Take the Helicobacter pylori growing in the logarithmic phase on the solid plate and make a bacterial suspension with BHI medium, and adjust the concentration to OD 600 to 0.3 (1×10 8 CFU / mL), and dilute it 10 times to 1×10 7 CFU / mL for standby.

[0100] (4) Inoculation of the bacterial solution: Add 10 μL to wells 1-8 (the concentration of the bacterial solution in each well is about 1.0×10 6 CFU / mL). Incubate for 72 hours to judge the results. The drug concentrations in wells 1 to 7 are 64, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2, and 1 μg / mL respectively.

[0101] (5) Result judgment: Take the lowest drug concentration that completely inhibits bacterial growth in the small well as the MIC. When the bacteria grow significantly in the positive control well 8 (i.e., without antibiotics), the test is meaningful. When there is a single skipped well in the microdilution method, the highest drug concentration that inhibits bacterial growth should be recorded. If there are multiple skipped wells, the result should not be reported and the test needs to be repeated. Each drug is tested 3 times.

[0102] 5. The experimental results are shown in Tables 3 and 4

[0107] Table 4 Synergistic inhibitory effects of Compound 1 and amphotericin B (AMB) on different strains (MIC: μg / mL)

[0108]

[0109] The above experimental results show that Compounds 1 and 2 have good antibacterial activities against one sensitive and one drug-resistant Helicobacter pylori strain, with MICs of 16 - 32 μg / mL, indicating that Compounds 1 and 2 have strong selective inhibitory effects on Helicobacter pylori. When used alone, Compound 1 has no significant inhibitory effect on the growth of two Candida albicans strains. However, when used in combination with AMB, it can significantly reduce its own MCI and lower the MCI of AMB to below 0.25 μg / mL, and can be used to prepare anti-Candida albicans drugs or as a lead compound for the development of anti-Candida albicans drugs.
