Cyclic peptides, acyclic diterpene glycosides and other compounds from Lycium chinense Mill.
The chemical structures of four cyclic peptides, lyciumins A-D (1-4), three acyclic diterpene glycosides, lyciumosides I-III (5-7) and other three compounds, a tryptophan derivative glycoside (8), a monoterpene glycoside (9) and a steroidal glycoside (10) isolated from Lycium chinense, have been elucidated by a combination of chemical, 1H- and 13C-NMR, and mass spectrometric studies. Lyciumins are interesting because of their monocyclic octapeptides containing a novel C-N linkage between tryprophan N1 and glycine C alpha.
