A new antimicrobial nor-friedelane-type triterpenoid and other constituents from Plectranthus glandulosus Hook. f. (Lamiaceae).
2021
Chemical investigation of the ethanol extract from the whole plant of Plectranthus glandulosus led to the isolation of a new nor-triterpenoid (1) along with seventeen known compounds (2-18) including seven triterpenoids, nine flavonoids and one steroid. Their structures were established on the basis of 1D- and 2D-NMR, IR, and MS experiments, and by comparison of their spectroscopic data with those of similar compounds reported in the literature. The EtOH extract and some isolated triterpenoids (1-4 and 13) were subjected to in vitro antimicrobial assays against a panel of pathogenic microorganisms, including Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and fungi using broth microdilution method. The EtOH extract displayed moderate activity (MIC = 512 µg/mL) against Staphylococcus aureus MSSA1, Shigella flexneri SDINT and Cryptococcus neoformans H99. Compounds 1, 4 and 13 showed the most potent antimicrobial effect with MICs of 32-256 µg/mL.
