The new benzofuran lignans nepetamultin A (1) and B (2) were isolated from flowers of Nepeta multifida L. [Schizonepeta multifida (L.) Briq.; Lamiaceae]. UV and NMR spectroscopic and mass spectrometric data indicated 1 was the 9′9′′′-di-O-methyl ester of schizotenuin A; 2, the 9′-O-methyl ester of schizotenuin C1. Biological studies revealed that 1 and 2 possessed antioxidant and antihyaluronidase activity.

Rosmarinic acid, a phytochemical compound, bears diverse pharmaceutical profile. It is composed by two building blocks: caffeic acid and a salvianic acid unit. The interaction profile, responsible for the delivery of rosmarinic acid and its two substructure components by serum albumin remains unexplored. To unveil this, we established a novel low-cost and efficient method to produce salvianic acid from the parent compound. To probe the interaction profile of rosmarinic acid and its two substructure constituents with the different serum albumin binding sites we utilised fluorescence spectroscopy and competitive saturation transfer difference NMR experiments. These studies were complemented with transfer NOESY NMR experiments. The thermodynamics of the binding profile of rosmarinic acid and its substructures were addressed using isothermal titration calorimetry. In silico docking studies, driven by the experimental data, have been used to deliver further atomic details on the binding mode of rosmarinic acid and its structural components.

The invention discloses a method for preparing salvianolic acid A. The method includes the following steps that firstly, salvianolic acid B is prepared into a solution with the concentration of 35-45 mg/mL by means of NaOH or NaHCO3 with the pH value of 3.5-4.5, the solution is placed in a subcritical water reaction kettle, after the temperature of a heating furnace reaches 170-190 DEG C and is stabilized, the reaction kettle is placed into the heating furnace, the reaction kettle is taken out after 50-70 min and placed in ice water bath or cold water to be cooled, the liquid is taken out and subjected to freeze-drying, and a crude product rich in salvianolic acid A is obtained; secondly, salvianolic acid A is separated and purified by means of high-speed countercurrent chromatography, wherein a solvent system is prepared from petroleum ether, ethyl acetate, n-butyl alcohol and water according to the ratio of 2:3:1:9, 10 mM of trifluoroacetic acid is added to an upper phase to form a stationary phase, 10 mM ammonia water is a lower phase and serves as a mobile phase, the volume of a high-speed countercurrent chromatography column is 200-400 mL, the sample loading amount is 1.0-1.2 g, the rotation speed is 600-1000 rpm, the flow speed is 1-4 mL/min, and the detection wavelength is 280 nm. The method is low in cost, easy to operate and high in efficiency, salvianolic acid crude extracts can be converted on a large scale, and a salvianolic acid A monomeric compound with the purity higher than 98% is separated and prepared.
