Abstract

One new flavone glycoside and 11 known compounds were characterized from the methanolic extracts of Dtps. Tinny Ribbon × Dtps. Plum Rose (Phalaenopsis hybrids) by nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectrometric analyses. In addition, the major pigment constituents 1 to 3 were examined for their antioxidant and antityrosinase activities. The experimental results indicated that the Phalaenopsis flower extracts were potential for developing new cosmetic products.

Phalaenopsis hybrids, known as moth orchids, are one of the most important orchids with different flower colors, such as white, yellow, red, red-purple, and purple. This orchid is not only suitable for domestic production, but also an important import plant material for the United States, Japan, and many European countries.^1,2 In Taiwan, one of the famous Phalaenopsis Kingdoms, the Phalaenopsis hybrids are most significant ornamental flowers for export worldwide, and has been emphasized by government to be developed as a dedicate agriculture industry. The chemistry of secondary metabolites of the Orchidaceae plants has been intensively investigated and various constituents, such as bibenzyl,^3-6 stilbenoid,^7-10 phenanthrene,^6,11,12 and phenanthropyran derivatives,^13,14 have been reported. In addition, flavonoids and anthocyanins, which are the main pigments in Phalaenopsis hybrid flowers, have also been studied and their structures were elucidated well in the literature.^15,16 Due to the structural diversity, and biological and ecological significance of flavonoids and anthocyanins, researchers continue to study their functions in different plant materials. They affect plant interactions with microsymbionts,¹⁷ insect predators and pollinators,^18,19 and also function in pigmentation and act as protectants against UV irradiation.^20-22 In fact, almost all higher plants produce flavonoids; however, some of them are quite unique, in which many specific compounds are accumulated during plant growth and development. Therefore, plants with different flavonoid accumulation patterns could be used to study the regulation of the flavanone metabolic pathway and to elucidate potential biosynthetic mechanism. Anthocyanins are also important secondary metabolites that constitute a major subgroup of flavonoids. They play one of the major roles as pigments of flowers and the biosynthetic pathway of anthocyanins is one of the most extensively studied pathways of plant secondary products. The common biosynthesis of anthocyanidins starts with general phenylpropanopid metabolism and leads to colorless flavonoids and colored anthocyanidins, successively.²³ Herein this study wishes to report the characterization of the chemical constituents in the flowers of Dtps. Tinny Ribbon × Dtps. Plum Rose (red Phalaenopsis hybrids) as a reference for further study on the biosynthetic pathway for these pigments.

Fresh flowers of Dtps. Tinny Ribbon × Dtps. Plum Rose were extracted with methanolic aqueous solution containing 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) at room temperature and concentrated.²⁴ The successive purification by a combination of conventional chromatographic techniques characterized one new compound apigenin 6-C-β-d-ribopyranosyl-7-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (1) (Figure 1). In addition, 11 known compounds including saponarin (2)²⁵ (3',7-di-O-sinapyl-glucosyl)-3-glucosyl cyanidin (3)¹⁵ mixtures of β-sitosteryl acetate (4) and stigmasteryl acetate (5,²⁶ mixtures of β-sitosterol (6) and stigmasterol (7)²⁷ cyclotirucanenol (8)²⁸ vanillic acid (9)²⁷ p-methoxybenzaldehyde (10)²⁹ canthin-6-one (11)²⁷ and methyl 4-β-d-glucopyranosyloxy-trans-cinnamate (12)³⁰ were also identified by spectroscopic data in comparison with the published values reported in the literature.

The pseudomolecular formula of compound 1 was assigned as C₂₆H₂₉O₁₄ by high-resolution fast-atom bombardment mass spectrometry (HR-FAB-MS) analysis, which showed an ion adduct peak at m/z 565.1555. In the negative mode electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS)/MS analysis, the base peak at m/z 563 and the fragment ion at m/z 401 suggested the glucosylation of OH-7. The [M-H-162] ion (m/z 401) gave the evidence for an O-linked hexose (glucose) and the fragment [M-H-90-162] ion (m/z 311) indicated the presence of Y₁ fragment (Figure 2) as a result of the elimination of one O-hexose and one C-pentose units.³¹ The infrared (IR) absorption bands at 3370 and 1609 cm⁻¹ displayed the presence of a hydroxyl group and a hydrogen-bonded conjugated carbonyl group. The UV absorption maxima at 227, 271, and 334 nm were characteristic of a flavone skeleton.³² The bathochromic shift in the UV absorption maximum observed after addition of AlCl₃ was in agreement with the presence of the hydrogen-bonded hydroxyl group of flavone at C-5.³³ In the ¹H NMR spectrum of 1, a set of A₂B₂ signals at δ 7.86 (2H, d, J = 8.9 Hz) and 6.90 (2H, d, J = 8.9 Hz) were attributed to H-2', -6' and H-3', -5' of the para-substituted B-ring. A singlet at δ 6.65 was assumed to be H-3 as it showed correlation with carbons at δ 107.0 (C-10), 122.9 (C-1'), 166.7 (C-2), and 184.2 (C-4) in heteronuclear multiple bond correlation (HMBC) spectrum (Table 1). Another singlet proton signal at δ 7.03 was proposed to be H-8 since it exhibited cross peaks with carbon signals at δ 107.0 (C-10), 111.8 (C-6), and 158.8 (C-9) in HMBC spectral analysis. Two anomeric proton signals at δ 4.75 (d, J = 9.9 Hz) and 4.90 (br d, J = 6.1 Hz) suggest the presence of two sugar units in compound 1. Two sets of ox methylene protons [H-6''' at δ 3.70 (dd, J = 12.0, 6.4 Hz), 3.99 (br d, J = 12.0 Hz) and H-5'' at δ 3.65 (d, J = 11.6 Hz), 3.92 (br d, J = 11.6 Hz)] were also observed in the ¹H NMR spectrum. These two sugar moieties were identified as d-ribose (δ 70.1, 71.0, 71.7, 75.2, and 76.4)^34,35 and d-glucose (δ 62.7, 71.6, 74.8, 76.9, 78.6, and 104.0),³⁶ respectively, with the assistance of ¹³C NMR, COSY, and HMBC spectral analysis (see Online Supplemental material). The ribose connected with the aglycone through C-C linkage was indicated with the carbon signal at δ 75.2 in its ¹³C NMR spectrum, which is the characteristic anomeric carbon signal of C-glycosides.³⁶ Furthermore, in the HMBC spectrum, long-range correlations from H-1" (δ 4.75) of ribose to C-5, C-6, and C-7 also confirmed the linkage of ribose to C-6. Another ³ J-HMBC correlation between H-1" and C-5" evidenced the six-membered ring structure of ribose. In addition, cross peaks between the proton signals H-8 and H-1''' of glucose in NOESY spectrum and ³ J-HMBC correlation from H-1''' to C-7 further supported the glucosylation on OH-7 (Figure 3). Consequently, the chemical structure of 1 was established as apigenin 6-C-β-d-ribopyranosyl-7-O-β-d-glucopyranoside as shown.

^aNMR data were measured in CD₃OD at 500 MHz (¹H) and 125 MHz (¹³C), respectively.

The isolated compounds 1, 2, and 3 were screened for their antioxidant and antityrosinase bioactivities.³⁷ Compounds 1 and 3 exhibited moderate α,α-diphenyl-β-picrylhydrazyl free radical scavenging activity with the half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC₅₀) values of 27.3 and 307.1 µM, respectively, compared to the reference compound vitamin E (IC₅₀ 12.5 µM). Compound 2 also displayed moderate antityrosinase activity with IC₅₀ value of 41.6 µM, compared to the reference compound kojic acid (IC₅₀ 30.0 µM). Moreover, the total yield of compounds 1 3 in fresh petals is about 0.58%. These experimental data supported the further development of Phalaenopsis flower extracts as ingredients of new cosmetic products.

Experimental

General

Melting points were determined using Yanagimoto MP-S3 micro melting point apparatus without correction. The UV spectra were obtained on a GBC Cintra 101 UV-Vis spectrophotometer. IR spectra were recorded with a Varian Scimitar FTS-2000 FT-IR spectrometer. Optical rotations were measured using a JASCO DIP-370 digital polarimeter. NMR spectra were recorded on Bruker AV-500 and Avance 300 spectrometers. Chemical shifts were reported in δ values (ppm) with reference to the respective residual solvent or deuterated solvent peaks. High-performance liquid chromatography was performed on a Shimadzu LC-10AT ^VP series pumping system equipped with a Shimadzu SPD-6AV UV-Vis spectrophotometric detector at 375 and 530 nm, a Luna C-18 packed column (4.6 × 250 mm, 5 µm) and a Rheodyne injector. MS/MS spectrometry was analyzed on a Perkin-Elmer SCIEX API mass spectrometer equipped with an electrospray ionization interface (ISV = 4700, orifice voltage of 80). The mass spectrometer was operated in the negative-ion mode. High-resolution mass spectra were determined with a JEOL JMS-700 spectrometer with FAB ionization. GR-grade organic solvent: methanol, chloroform, n-butanol, n-hexane, ethyl acetate, acetone, ammonia, and hydrochloric acid (ACS grade) were purchased from Mallinckrodt (St Louis, MO, USA). Deuterated solvent (CD₃OD) was purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St Louis, MO, USA).

Plant Material

The flowers of Phalaenopsis hybrids, Dtps. Tinny Ribbon × Dtps. Plum Rose, were kindly provided by Ox Orchid Nursery, Tainan, Taiwan and were authenticated by Prof W. H. Chen (Department of Life Sciences, National Cheng Kung University, Tainan, Taiwan). A voucher specimen (TSWu_ PCKuo_20060001) has been deposited in the herbarium of School of Pharmacy, National Cheng Kung University, Tainan, Taiwan.

Extraction and Isolation

Fresh flowers of Dtps. Tinny Ribbon × Dtps. Plum Rose (1.24 kg) were cut into small pieces and were extracted with 0.1% TFA methanolic solution (5 × 2 L) at room temperature for 8 hours and filtered. Evaporation of the solvent under reduced pressure provided dark brown crude extract (70 g). It was partitioned with ethyl acetate (EtOAc) to yield EtOAc (15 g) and H₂O (55 g) soluble residue, respectively. The EtOAc extract was loaded on a silica gel column, and elution was carried out with a stepwise gradient from 5 % to 50 % EtOAc in n-hexane, and finally washed by MeOH to afford five fractions. Fraction 1 was further separated by two successive silica gel open columns with mixtures of EtOAc and n-hexane (5:95) to give mixtures of β-sitosteryl acetate (4) and stigmasteryl acetate (5) (25.0 mg). Fraction 2 was further separated using repeated silica gel column chromatography to yield mixtures of β-sitosterol (6) and stigmasterol (7) (40.0 mg). Fraction 3 was rechromatographed by successive silica gel open columns and thin-layer chromatography (TLC) to afford cyclotirucanenol (8) (5.0 mg). Fraction 4 on column chromatography over silica gel with the mixing eluents of n-hexane and acetone (19:1) and further purification by repeated column chromatography and TLC gave vanillic acid (9) (5.0 mg) and p-methoxybenzaldehyde (10) (3.0 mg). Fraction 5 was further subjected to column chromatography over silica gel using a stepwise gradient of n-hexane/EtOAc (20:1 to 1:1) to afford canthin-6-one (11) (5.0 mg). The H₂O soluble residue was subjected to Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography eluting with increasing concentrations of MeOH in H₂O to give five fractions. Rechromatography of fraction 2 over Sephadex LH-20 eluting with a mixture of H₂O-MeOH and successive purification by preparative TLC on silica gel with mixture of CHCl₃-MeOH (9:1) saturated with water gave methyl 4-β-d-glucopyranosyloxy-trans-cinnamate (12) (15.0 mg). Purification of fraction 3 on Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography eluting with a mixture of H₂O-MeOH led to the isolation of saponarin (2) (5.0 g) and apigenin 6-C-β-d-ribopyranosyl-7-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (1) (2.0 g). Separation of fraction 4 by repeated column chromatography over Sephadex LH-20 eluting with a mixture of H₂O-MeOH yielded (3',7-di-O-sinapylglucosyl)-3-glucosyl cyanidin (3) (160 mg).
