Davidones F and G, Two Novel Flavonoids from Sophora davidii (Franch.) Skeels.

ABSTRACT: An unprecedented novel flavanone davidone F (1) with a seven-membered ring side chain, and a novel flavanonol davidone G (2), along with 11 known flavonoids, were isolated from the ethyl acetate fraction of Sophora davidii (Franch.) Skeels. Their planar structures were established by UV, IR, HRESIMS, 1D and 2D NMR data. The relative configurations of 1 and 2 were determined by calculation of NMR chemical shift values, the absolute configuration of 1 and 2 were assigned by comparing their experimental and calculated electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra. Moreover, compounds 1-13 were screened for the translocation activity of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT-4), and the fluorescence intensity was increased to the range of 1.56 and 2.79 folds. Compounds 1 and 2 showed moderate GLUT-4 transl
