The title compound, C30H48O3·CH4O, is a cytotoxic and apoptosis-inducing triterpenoid which was isolated from the rhizome of Astilbe chinensis. The molecule is composed of five six-membered rings. The cyclohexene ring adopts a slightly distorted half-chair conformation and the cyclohexane rings adopt chair conformations. The hydroxy and carboxy groups both serve simultaneously as hydrogen-bond donors and acceptors, forming molecular chains.

The rhizomes of Astilbe Chinensis were collected in Anji county, Zhejiang province, China in August 2001. The plants were identified as A. chinensis (Haxim.) Franch. et Savat. by Professor Xiang-Ji Xue, College of Pharmaceutical Science, Zhejiang University. A voucher specimen (No. 200120) was deposited in Laboratory of Nature and Biochemistry, Zhejiang University. The rhizomes of Astilbe Chinensis were dried at 313 K in the dark, in a ventilated hood, and ground. The material (5.0 kg) was extracted three times with CH3OH (each 25 l) at room temperature. The CH3OH extract (366 g) was partitioned between petroleum ether (20 l) and water (2 l). The petroleum ether solution was concentrated in vacuum to give 41.2 g of a gelatinous material. A part of the extract (40.0 g) was absorbed onto silica gel (60 g) and chromatographied on a silica gel (600 g) column eluted with petroleum ether-EtoAc (50:1, 30:1, 15:1, 5:1, 3:1, 2:1) gradients. The eluted fractions were evaluated by TLC and combined to give fractions 1 to 19, respectively. Fraction 12 was recrystallized with EtOAc–CH3OH (1:1) to afford 2.5 g of the pure title compound, (I). m.p.: 513.5–515.5 K. 13C NMR (125 MHz, C5ND5, p.p.m): 179.4 (C27), 138.2 (C13), 126.2 (C12), 79.4 (C3), 55.8 (C14), 55.2 (C5), 49.0 (C18), 47.2 (C9), 43.9 (C19), 39.7 (C8), 7 (C4), 38.6 (C1), 37.1 (C10), 36.5 (C21), 36.3 (C7), 34.3 (C22), 33.5 (C29), 38 32.8 (C17), 31.1 (C20), 28.2 (C28), 28.1 (C23), 27.5(C2),26.9 (C16), 23.6 (C30), 22.8 (C11), 22.2 (C15), 18.2 (C6), 18.0 (C26), 16.4 (C25), 16.0 (C24). Crystals suitable for X-ray structure analysis were obtained by slow evaporation from methanol at room temperature.
After checking their presence in the difference map, all H atoms were geometrically fixed and allowed to ride on their attached atoms using SHELXL97 (Sheldrick, 1997) defaults. The absolute structure could not be established because of the weak anomalous signal. Friedel pairs were merged for the final cycles of refinement.

Special details top
Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Astilbe chinensis (Haxim.) Franch. et Savat. (Saxiffagaceae) is a perennial herbaceous plant growing at an altitude of 390–3600 m in China, Russia, Japan and Korea. Its rhizome, known as 'Luo Xinfu' (Chinese name), has been used for headache, arthralgia, chronic bronchitis and stomachalgia, in traditional Chinese medicine (Pan, 1985, 1995). Pharmacological experiments have indicated that the extracts from A. chinensis had antineoplastic and immunopotent activities (Chen et al., 1996). Previously, we isolated β-sitosterol palmitate, daucosterol, β-sitosterol and bergenin from the rhizome of A. chinensis (Sun et al., 2002). To investigate the bioactive natural products from A. chinensis, chemical studies on the rhizome of A. chinensis were undertaken by screening using antineoplastic tests in vitro and we have obtained cytotoxic and apoptotic-inducing triterpenoid 3β-hydroxyolean-12-en-27-oic acid, (I), from its petroleum ether extract. It exhibits significant cytotoxic activity against human ovarian carcinoma cell line (HO-8910), human cervical squamous carcinoma cell line (HeLa) and human leukemia cell (HL60) in vitro, its 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) values were 8.0 (9), 3.94 (13) and 3.67 (19) µg ml−1, respectively. Moreover, it induces apoptotic cell death of the HO-8910 in a dose-dependent manner, ranging from 2.5 µg mL−1 to 40.0 µg mL−1. The structure of the title compound, (I), was elucidated by spectroscopic analysis including two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy and confirmed by single-crystal X-diffraction analysis.
The structure of (I) with the atom-numbering scheme is shown in Fig. 1. The molecule is composed of five six-membered rings, viz. A (C1—C5/C10), B (C5—C10), C (C8/C9/C11—C14), D (C13—C18) and E (C17—C22). Rings A, B, D and E adopt chair conformations whereas ring C adopts a slightly distorted half-chair conformation owing to the C12═C13 double bond. All rings are trans fused except for D/E junction, which is cis fused. The orientation of the carboxy group is axial and that for hydroxy group is equatorial.
The hydroxy and carboxy groups both serve as simultaneous hydrogen-bond donors and acceptors (Table 2). In the asymmetric unit, the two molecules are linked by O2—H2···O4 hydrogen bonds. In the solid state, the screw-related molecules are linked by O1—H1···O3i hydrogen bonds (Table 2), to form molecular chains along the a axis. The chain formation is further stabilized by the methanol solvate through O4—H4O···O1i hydrogen bonds. The crystal structure is further stabilsed by C—H···O interactions.
