Antiallergic Agents from Natural Sources. 3. Structures and Inhibitory Effects on Nitric Oxide Production and Histamine Release of Five Novel Polyacetylene Glucosides from Bidens parviflora WILLD.

Abstract
Five new polyacetylene glucosides, bidensyneosides A1, A2, B, C (1-4), and 3-deoxybidensyneoside B (5), have been isolated from the air-dried whole plant of Bidens parviflora WILLD. The structures were identified based on spectroscopic analysis, physicochemical properties, and application of the modified Mosher method to be 3(R),8(E)-8-decene-4,6-diyne-1,3-diol 1-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (1), deca-3(R),8(Z) 8-decene-4,6-diyne-1,3-diol 1-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (2), 3(R)-deca-4,6,8-triyne-1,3-diol 1-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (3), 3(R),8(E)-8-decene-4,6-diyne-1,3,10-triol 1-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (4), and 8(E)-8-decene-4,6-diyne-1,10-diol 1-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (5), respectively. These compounds inhibited nitric oxide (NO) production in lipopolysaccharide and interferon-gamma activated murine macrophages (RAW264.7) and also inhibited histamine release from rat mast cells stimulated by the antigen-antibody reaction.
