A New Cinnamic Acid Derivative and Anti-Inflammatory Constituents from Capparis lanceolaris

  • Published:
Chemistry of Natural Compounds Aims and scope

A new cinnamic acid derivative, (E)-3-(4-(((E)-4-hydroxy-3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl)oxy)phenyl)acrylic acid (1), has been isolated from the roots of Capparis lanceolaris, together with six known compounds, luteolin (2), kaempferol (3), apigenin (4), catechin (5), trans-ferulic acid (6), and vanillin (7). The structure of new compound 1 was determined through spectroscopic and MS analyses. Among the isolates, luteolin (2), kaempferol (3), apigenin (4), and catechin (5) showed potent inhibition with IC50 values of 26.24 ± 1.78, 20.38 ± 1.36, 22.8 ± 1.57, and 42.5 ± 2.24 μM respectively, against LPS-induced NO generation.
