GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT
An updated phytochemical investigation of the aerial parts of Amomum muricarpum Elmer led to the isolation of a new megastigmane glycoside, (3S*,5R*,6R*,9R*)-6,9-epoxy-3,5-megastigmanediol 3-O-rutinoside (1) and five known phenolic compounds. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic evidence including HRESIMS and NMR data. All the isolates were reported for the first time from this plant. The anti-inflammatory effect via the inhibition of NO production of isolated compounds was evaluated in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. Our study found that 5,7-dimethoxyflavone (4) was the most active compound with the IC50 = 29.5 µM.
