Abstract

Two new aporphine-derived alkaloids, aporaloids C and D (1 and 2), along with eight known biogenetically related alkaloids (310) were isolated from the stems of Fissistigma maclurei Merr. Their structures were elucidated by detailed analysis of NMR, HRESIMS, MS, IR, UV and Optical rotations data. Compounds 1 and 2 represent a rare example of N-methylol aporphine-derived alkaloids from natural sources. The inhibitory effect of all compounds on the proliferation of primary synovial cells was evaluated. Compound 3 showed potent inhibitory effect on the proliferation of synoviocytes with an IC50 value of 4.8 μM. Compounds 1, 2, 69 and 10 exhibited moderate inhibitory activity on synoviocytes, with IC50 values of 36.8, 37.1, 31.2 μM, 32.5, 36.3, 36.8 and 18.2 μM, respectively.
