Abstract

Two new phenolic acids, ethyl pro-lithospermate (1), n-butyl pro-lithospermate (2)

were isolated from Salvia yunnanensis C.H.Wright, along with nineteen known

compounds (3-21). The structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated on the

basis of extensive spectrometry and by comparing their physical and spectroscopic

data to literature. Among them, compounds 11, 12 and 14-16 were firstly isolated

from Salvia yunnanensis C.H.Wright. Some of the isolated compounds were

evaluated for their neuroprotection. Compound 10-12 showed significant

neuroprotective effects in PC12 cells and compounds 1, 4-7 displayed moderate

neuroprotective effects.
