1 INTRODUCTION 1. The urgency of the thesis In the recent decades, the chemical and biological investigation of medicinal plants and animals to find out natural bioactive compounds supplying for pharmaceutical industry is getting more and more attention from scientists worldwide. According to Dictionary of Vietnamese medicinal plants, the species of the Vitex genus were used for treating many diseases, such as: cough, colds, dizziness, headache, asthma, malaria, skin diseases,… [1]. Phytochemical investigation of Vitex genus led to the isolation of numerous terpenoids, flavonoids, ecdysteroids, lignans, and other compounds. Pharmacological studies had shown that the extractions and isolated compounds possess antitumor, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antioxidant activities, and so on. However, there are few researches on the chemical components and biological activities of Vitex species growing in Vietnam [2-6]. Therefore, the mission of studying the chemical and bioactive components of Vitex species growing in Vietnam, developing health care production is very important. From above reasons, thesis title was chosen to be “Study on chemical constituents and biological activities of Vitex limonifolia Wall. Ex C.B.Clarke and Vitex trifolia L.” 2.

Compound VT5 was reported from Vitex genus for the first time. 3 compounds VT3, VT4, and VT6 were reported from V. trifolia for the first time. 3.1.1. Chemical structure of isolated compounds from V. limonifolia This section presents the detailed results of spectral analysis and structure determination of 12 isolated compounds from V. limonifolia. 3.1.1.1. Compound VL1: Vitexlimolide A (new compound) Figure 3.3. Chemical structure of VL1 and the reference compound Compound VL1 was obtained as a white amorphous powder. The HR-ESI-MS of VL1 showed a pseudo-ion peak at m/z 369.1830 [M+Cl]‒ (Calcd. for [C20H30O4Cl]‒, 369.1838), revealed the molecular formula to be C20H30O5. The 1H-NMR spectrum of VL1 (in CD3OD) showed the following signals: three tertiary methyl groups at δH 0.74, 0.86, and 0.92 (each 3H, s), two hydroxymethine protons at δH 4.38 (t, J = 3.0 Hz) and 4.58 (dd, J = 4.0, 8.0 Hz), and three olefinic protons at δH 4.65 (s), 5.13 (s), and 6.01 (d, J = 2.0 Hz). The 13C-NMR and DEPT spectra of VL1
11 revealed the signals of 20 carbons including three methyl carbons at δC 14.3, 22.0, and 33.8, seven methylenes at δC 20.4, 32.0, 32.5, 39.8, 43.3, 67.2, and 110.0, five methines 47.6, 48.8, 67.2, 74.7, and 114.4, four quaternary carbons at δC 34.1, 40.5, 150.6, 177.5, and one carbonyl carbon at δC 176.5. The 1H- and 13 C-NMR data analysis indicated the structure of VL1 as a labdane-type diterpene [42]. In addition, the NMR data of VL1 were similar to those of vitexolide E (VL1a) [42] except for an additional hydroxyl group at C-7. Figure 3.4. The important HMBC, COSY and NOESY correlations of VL1 The position of hydroxyl group at C-7 and double bond at C-8/C-17 were confirmed by the HMBC correlations from H-17 (δH 4.65 and 5.13) to C-7 (δC 74.7)/C-8 (δC 150.6)/C-9 (δC 47.6) and from H-7 (δH 4.38) to C-5 (δC 48.8)/C-6 (δC 32.5)/C9 (δC 47.6). The configuration of hydroxyl group at C-7 (the multiplicity of H-7: δH 4.38 t, J = 3.0 Hz) was proved as axial (α-oriental), based on comparing the coupling constants of H-6 and H-7 of 7β-hydroxyl compound [7β-hydroxyisocupressic acid: δH 3.83 (1H, dd, J = 5.0, 11.5 Hz, H-7), recorded in CD3OD)] [120] and 7α- hydroxyl compound [7α-hydroxylabd-8(17)-en-15,18-dioic acid-15- methyl ester: δH 4.38 (br s, H-7), recorded in CDCl3] [121]. The HMBC correlations from H-14 (δH 6.01) to C-12 (δC 67.2)/C-13 (δC 177.5)/C-15 (δC 176.5)/C-16 (δC 73.0); from H-16 (δH 5.01) to C-14 (δC 114.4)/C-15
12 (δC 176.5); from H-12 (δH 4.58) to C-9 (δC 47.6)/C-11 (δC 32.0)/C-13 (δC 177.5)/C-14 (δC 114.4)/C-16 (δC 73.0) confirmed the presence of the α,β- unsaturated γ-lactone at β-carbon (C-13) in C ring and hydroxyl group at C-12. The multiplicity of H-12 (δH 4.58, dd, J = 4.0, 8.0 Hz) confirmed the α-configuration of hydroxyl group at C-12 by comparing with the corresponding data of the vitexolide A [multiplicity of H-12 (4.56 br d, J = 10.6 Hz), recorded in acetone-d6] and 12-epivitexolide A [multiplicity of H-12 (4.61 br s), recorded in acetone-d6] [42]. Furthermore, the absolute configuration of hydroxyl group at C-12 of VL1 was also elucidated by the comparison of its experimental CD spectrum with those calculated spectra. The TDDFT calculated CD spectra of two epimers (1a-1b) [122] are shown in Figure 3.5. The CD spectrum of VL1 was recorded at the concentrations of 10-4 M (for the wavelength of 200-245 nm) and 10-2 M (for the wavelength of 200-245 nm). The CD spectra of VL1 were found similar to that of 1a indicating the configuration of the hydroxyl group at C-12 as α (R). Consequently, the structure of VL1 was defined as 7α,12α-dihydroxylabda-8(17),13-dien-15,16-olide and named vitexlimolide A. 1 .0 -4 1 (c = 1 0 M) -2 1 (c = 1 0 M) 1a 0 .5   , r e la tiv e u n its 1b 0 .0 -0 .5 -1 .0 210 220 230 240 250 260 270 280  , nm Figure 3.1.

Compound VL2: Vitexlimolide B (new compound) Compound VL2 was isolated as a white amorphous powder. The molecular formula of VL2 was established as C20H30O8 from the pseudo-
14 molecular ion at m/z 385.1772 [M+Cl]‒ in HR-ESI-MS spectrum (Calcd. for [C20H30O5Cl]‒, 385.1787). Figure 3.14. Chemical structure of VL2 and the reference compound (VL1) The 1H- and 13C-NMR spectrum of VL2 (in CD3OD) showed a pattern similar to those of compound VL1. However, the signals of oxymethylene (δH 5.01 and δC 73.0) in VL1 were replaced by hemiacetal (δH 6.23 and δC 100.2) in VL2. The broad and short signals in γ-hydroxy- γ-latone group was hard to observe in 1H- and 13C-NMR, suggesting the formation of conformational equilibriums of two C-16 epimers. The position of hydroxyl group at C-7 and double bond at C-8/C-17 were confirmed by the HMBC correlations from H-17 (δH 4.78 and 5.13) to C- 7 (δC 74.7)/C-8 (δC 150.0)/C-9 (δC 47.6) and from H-7 (δH 4.38) to C-5 (δC 49.0)/C-6 (δC 32.4)/C9 (δC 47.6).

The configuration of this hydroxyl group was determined as β by comparing the multiplicity of H-12 (δH 4.58, br s) of 7α-hydroxyl compound [vitexolide A: multiplicity of H-12 (δH 4.56 br d, J = 10.6 Hz), recorded in acetone-d6] and 7β-hydroxyl compound (12-epivitexolide A) [multiplicity of H-12 (δH 4.61 br s), recorded in acetone-d6] [42]. Based on these, the structure of VL2 was determined as 7α,12β,16- trihydroxylabda-8(17),13-dien-15,16-olide and named vitexlimolide B.

Chemical structure of isolated compounds from V. trifolia This section presents the detailed results of spectral analysis and structure determination of 16 isolated compounds from V. trifolia. 3.1.2.2. Compound VT2: Matairesinol 4’-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (new compound) Figure 3.51. Chemical structure of VT2 and the reference compound Compound VT2 was obtained as a white amorphous powder. Its molecular formula was determined as C26H32O11 on the basic of HR-ESI- MS ion at m/z 521.2009 [M+H]+ (Calcd. for [C26H33O11]+, 521.2017). The 1 H-NMR spectrum of VT2 (in CD3OD) showed the signals for two pairs of ABX aromatic protons at δH 6.49 (dd, J = 1.6, 8.0 Hz), 6.55 (d, J = 1.6 Hz), and 6.66 (d, J = 8.0 Hz); 6.64 (dd, J = 1.6, 8.0 Hz), 6.73 (d, J = 1.6 Hz), and 7.04 (d, J = 8.0 Hz), two methoxy groups at δH 3.75 (s) and 3.79 (s), one anomeric proton at δH 4.84 (d, J = 8.0 Hz). The 13C-NMR and DEPT spectra revealed 26 carbon signals, of which, 18 were assigned to a lignan moiety, 2 carbons belonged to two methoxy groups, and 6 carbons contributed to a sugar moiety. The 1H- and 13C-NMR data of VT2 were very similar to those of VT2a (matairesinol 4-O-β-D-glucopyranoside) [134] except for the change position of glucopyranosyl moiety from C-4 to C-4′. Butanolide ring was confirmed by HMBC correlation between H- 9 (δH 3.91 and 4.16) and C-9′ (δC 181.5) as well as COSY correlations of H-8′ (δH 2.66)/H-8 (δH 2.47)/H-9 (δH 3.91 and 4.16).
17 Figure 3.52. The important HMBC, COSY and NOESY correlations of VT2 The HMBC correlations between H-7 (δH 2.52) and C-1 (δC 131.3)/C-2 (δC 113.3)/C-6 (δC 122.2)/C-8 (δC 42.6)/C-9 (δC 72.9)/C-8′ (δC 47.6); between methoxy protons (δH 3.75) and C-3 (δC 149.0); between H-7′ (δH 2.85) and C-1′ (δC 134.2)/C-2′ (δC 114.8)/C-6′ (δC 123.0)/C-8′ (δC 47.6)/C-9′ (δC 181.5)/C-8 (δC 42.6); and between methoxy protons (δH 3.79) and C-3′ (δC 150.6) suggested the positions of two 3-methoxy-4- hydroxyphenyl groups at C-7 and C-7′. The coupling constant, JH-1″/H-2″ = 8.0 Hz of sugar moiety and its 13C-NMR chemical shifts: C-1′′ (δC 102.9), C-2′′ (δC 74.9), C-3′′ (δC 77.8), C-4′′ (δC 71.3), C-5′′ (δC 78.1), and C-6′′ (δC 62.5) suggested the presence of β-D-glucopyranosyl moiety. This was further confirmed by acidhydrolysis of VT2 (identified as TMS derivative). In addition, the HMBC correlation between glc H-1″ (δH 4.84) and C-4′ (δC 146.8) determined the glucose moiety at C-4′ of aglycone. The absolute configuration of aglycone was determined by the NOESY, CD spectra. The NOE correlations between H-8′ (δH 2.66) and Hα-9 (δH 3.91); H-8 (δH 2.48) and Hβ-9 (δH 4.16)/H-7 (δH 2.52); H-7 (δH 2.52) and Hα-9 (δH 3.91), suggested the configurations of H-8 and H-8′ to be trans. The two negative Cotton effects at 226 and 275 nm in the CD spectrum indicated a (8R,8′R)-configurations in matairesinol [134]. Consequently, the new compound VT2 was determined to be matairesinol 4′-O-β-D-glucopyranoside.
