Abstract

A new steroid, (3S,22R,24R)-stigmast-5-ene-3β,22α-diol (1), together with ten known compounds, stigmast-5-ene-3β,7α,22α-triol (2), 24-ethylcholest-5-ene-3β,4β,22α-triol (3), stigmast-5-ene-3β,7α-diol (4), β-sitosterol (5), β-daucosterol (6), (1R,2R)-1-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-1,2,3-propanetriol (7), (1S,2S)-1-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)- 1,2,3-propanetriol (8), eugenol (9), methoxyeugenol (10), and methyl (E)-ferulate (11) were isolated from the stem barks of Cinnamomum wilsonii.The structure including the absolute configuration of 1 was determined by spectroscopic data interpretation and X-ray single-crystal diffraction analysis with Cu Kα irradiation.Compounds 111 were evaluated for immunomodulatory activities against murine lymphocytes.1, 5 and 6 significantly inhibited the proliferation of murine ConA-induced T cells, and 6 and 9 significantly inhibited the proliferation of LPS-induced murine B cells.
