Lindenane sesquiterpenoid monomers and oligomers: Chemistry and pharmacological activities
PHYTOCHEMISTRY(2023)
Abstract
Lindenane sesquiterpenoid monomers and oligomers, characterized by a sterically congested cyclopentane and an unusual trans-5/6 ring junction, are mainly found in Chloranthaceae species and the genus Lindera Thunb (Lauraceae). Numerous studies have shown that lindenane sesquiterpenoid monomers and oligomers exhibit a broad range of biological activities, such as cytotoxicity, anti-inflammation, neuroprotection, antifungal, and anti-malarial activities. This review covers publications from the first identification of lindeneol in 1925-2023 and classifies the lindenane sesquiterpenoid derivatives into sesquiterpenoid monomers, sesquiterpenoid-monoterpene conjugates, sesquiterpenoid homodimers, sesquiterpenoid heterodimers, and trimeric sesquiterpenoids. In addition, their biological activities are summarized. This review will establish a scientific basis and provide guidance for utilizing this unique class of natural products as potential lead compounds to develop their application in treating diseases corresponding to inflammation, cancer, and plasmodium.
