Discovery of bioactive polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols from Hypericum wilsonii

Eleven new polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols (PPAPs), hyperwilsones A-K (1-11), along with five known PPAPs (12-16), were isolated from Hypericum wilsonii. Their structures were established via spectroscopic methods, the careful analysis of calculated and experimental electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, the modified Mosher's method, and [Rh2(OCOCF3)4]-induced ECD. Hyperwilsone A (1) and...
