ABSTRACT:
2
Ficus hirta, a widely consumed food by Hakka people, has been reported to show
3
potent antifungal activity against phytopathogen Penicillium italicum. However,
4
there is no report of chemical constituents responsible for the antifungal activity. In
5
the current study, nine monosubstituted benzene derivatives including three new
6
ones (1−3) were isolated from the fruits of F. hirta. The structures of these isolates
7
were elucidated based on the analysis of spectroscopic data (MS and NMR). All of
8
the isolates were evaluated for antifungal activities against P. italicum. At equivalent
9
concentration, compound 1 exhibited stronger antifungal activity than that of ethanol
10
extract of F. hirta fruits.

INTRODUCTION
16
Postharvest disease is a major factor that causes the decay of fruits and vegetables
17
during storage.1 Around 10%−20% fresh fruits and vegetables were decayed by
18
postharvest disease in the developed country per year.2 Many postharvest diseases
19
are mainly caused by phytopathogenic fungi which usually infect the host through
20
wounds sustained during harvest, handling and processing.3 For citrus fruits, blue
21
and green molds are the two major postharvest diseases caused by Penicillium
22
italicum, Penicillium digitatum, respectively.4 Currently, synthetic fungicides (eg.
23
thiabendazole and imazalil) are usually used for fresh-keeping purpose in many
24
fruits and vegetables. However, many researches showed that synthetic fungicides
25
were harmful to human health and environment.5 Therefore, search for naturally
26
occurring fungicides has attracted more attentions.
27
Ficus hirta Vahl. (Wuzhimaotao) belongs to the family Moraceae, which are
28
largely distributed in tropical and sub-tropical regions.6 The roots of F. hirta have
29
been used as a soup herb by Hakka people for a long time, while its fruits are used in
30
Chinese folk medicine to treat dieresis, hepatitis, tumor, difficult labor and puerperal
31
pain.7 Previous phytochemical investigation of F. hirta was focused on its roots,
32
flavonoids and coumarins are the major constituents.7-9 Our previous study found
33
that the ethanol extracts of fruits of F. hirta showed potent antifungal activity
34
against P. italicum and P. digitatum.4 However, there is no report of chemical
35
constituents responsible for the antifungal activity. Therefore, we conducted a
36
phytochemical investigation of an ethanol extract of F. hirta fruits to find out the
3

37
antifungal constituents, which led to the isolation and identification of nine
38
monosubstituted benzene derivatives including three new ones (1−3) (Figure 1). All
39
of the isolates were evaluated their antifungal activities against P. italicum. Herein,
40
the isolation, structure elucidation, and anti-fungal evaluation of these compounds
41
are reported.

MATERIALS AND METHODS
44
Materials. The fruits of F. hirta were purchased from Zhangshu medicinal
45
market on May 2014, Jiangxi Province, China, and identified by Prof. Shouran Zhou
46
(Jiangxi University of Traditional Chinese Medicine). A voucher specimen
47
(FH-201406) has been deposited in the Jiangxi Key Laboratory for Postharvest
48
Technology and Nondestructive Testing of Fruits & Vegetables, Jiangxi Agricultural
49
University (Jiangxi, China). The fruits of F. hirta were dried at 50 OC for 4 h and
50
finely powdered in a knife mill.
51
Extraction and Isolation of Compounds 1−3. The dried fruits of F. hirta (4.9
52
kg) were ground and extracted by ultrasonic-assisted method with 95% ethanol (3 ×
53
25.0 L) at room temperature for 90 min. The dried ethanol extract (FH, 345.1 g) was
54
subjected to D101 macro rein column (8 × 40 cm) chromatography eluted with
55
water (10.0 L), 30% ethanol (8.0 L), 50% ethanol (8.0 L) and 95% ethanol (8.0 L),
56
respectively, collected each solvent gradient together, to yield four fractions
57
(FH1−FH4).
58
The 30% ethanol eluted fraction (FH2, 113.6 g) was subjected to C18 silica gel
59
column (4 × 46 cm) chromatography eluted with gradient MeOH/H2O (from 15/85
60
to 25/75, v/v; each 800 mL), collected 100 mL for each flask, to yield five combined
61
subfractions FH2a‒FH2e. 4

Fraction FH2c was chromatographed on Sephadex LH-20 (2.5 × 110 cm) eluted
63
with MeOH, collected 3 mL for each tube, to give six combined subfractions
64
(FH2c1‒FH2c6). Subfraction FH2c2 was subjected on Sephadex LH-20 (2.5 × 110

68
100:1 to 1:1, v/v), collected 15 mL for each tube, to get seven combined subfractions
69
(FH2c2d1‒FH2c2d7). Subfraction FH2c2d5 was subjected on Sephadex LH-20 (1.8
70
× 110 cm) eluted with MeOH, collected 3 mL for each tube, to give three
71
sub-fractions

74
30:70; v/v, 3 mL/min), yielded compound 1 (6.4 mg, tR = 17.6 min). FH2c2d7 was
75
purified by semi-preparation HPLC, eluting with MeOH-H2O (0-20 min: 30:70 to

of Fruits & Vegetables (Nanchang, China) and preserved on potato dextrose agar
88
(PDA) at 4.0 ± 0.5 °C. The concentration of the fungi spores was determined by the
89
aid of a hematocyte counter and adjusted to 105—106 CFU/mL with sterile distilled
90
water. Petri dishes (diameter, 9.0 cm) were prepared with PDA and surface
91
inoculated with 2.0% of spore suspensions (105—106 CFU/mL) in sterile saline
92
solution. Sterile Oxford cup (diameter, 8 mm) were impregnated with 200 µL of
93
each extracts and isolates. The diameters of inhibition zones (DIZs) around the
94
Oxford cups were evaluated by vernier micrometer after 48 h of culture at 27.0 ± 1.0
95
°C in the darkness. Five replicate trials were conducted against each extracts and
96
isolates. The antifungal results were expressed as the mean value of diameters ±
97
standard deviation. The larger the mean value of diameters is, the stronger antifungal
98
activity is.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
101
The compounds isolated from fruits of F. hirta included three new compounds (1−3)
102
and six known compounds (4−9). Herein, the structure elucidation of the new
103
compounds is presented.
104
Compound 1, was obtained as colorless amorphous solid, [α]25D = -98 (c 0.100,
105
MeOH), displayed a molecular formula of C15H20O8 as determined by HRESIMS at
106
m/z 351.1031 [M+Na]+ (calcd for C15H20O8Na, 351.1056). In the 1H NMR spectrum,
107
five aromatic protons signal at δH 7.36‒7.50 suggested the presence of
108
mono-substituted benzene ring. Combined analysis of 1H and 13C NMR data (Table 1)
109
revealed the presence of a β-pyranoglucose moiety, whose anomeric proton and
110
carbon resonated at δH 4.06 (1H, d, J = 7.6 Hz, H-1′) and δC 100.8 (C-1′), respectively.
111
Except the mono-substituted benzene ring and β-pyranoglucose moiety, an

112
oxygenated methine (δH 5.43, δC 77.3), a methoxyl (δH 3.62, δC 52.4) and an ester
113
carbonyl (δC 170.9), were observed in the 1H and 13C NMR spectra. Further analysis
114
of 2D NMR data allowed the establishment of the structure of Compound 1. From the
115
1
116
Figure 2A) was established. The HMBC correlation (Figure 2A) from H-1′ to C-2
117
assigned the hexose moiety to C-2. The HMBC correlations from H-2 to C-1, C-3,
118
C-4 and C-8, indicated that the OCH-2 was linked to C-3 of benzene ring and ester
119
carbonyl C-1. The methoxyl was attached to C-1 by the HMBC correlation between
120
proton signals of methoxyl (δH 3.62) and C-1. Thus, a planar structure of 1 was
121
established as glucoside methyl mandelate. Acid hydrolysis of 1 afforded D-glucose,
122
which was identified by direct comparison with an authentic sample. By using
123
Hudson’s rules of isorotation,10 the molecular rotation of the aglycone methyl
124
mandelate was readily calculated as a negative value from the measured specific
125
rotations of 1. The absolute configuration of the aglycone was thus assigned to be 2R
126
by comparing its optical rotatory properties to that of reported data. The structure of 1
127
was thus determined as (2R) methyl 2-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-2-phenyl acetate.
H–1H COSY spectrum, a hexose moiety (C-1′ to C-6′) (drawn with bold bond in
128
Compound 2 was obtained as colorless amorphous solid with a molecular formula
129
of C12H12O6, as determined by the HRESIMS ion at m/z 275.0529 [M+Na]+ (calcd for
130
C12H12O6Na, 275.0532). Five aromatic protons signal at δH 7.98 (2H, d, J = 7.6 Hz),
131
7.71 (1H, t, J = 7.6 Hz), 7.57 (2H, t, J = 7.6 Hz) were observed in the 1H NMR
132
spectra (Table 1), which indicated the presence of mono-substituted benzene ring. In
133
the
134
129.3, supported the presence of mono-substituted benzene ring. Except the NMR
135
signals of mono-substituted benzene ring, an oxygenated methine (δH 5.55, δC 69.9), a
13
C NMR spectrum, the carbon resonances at δC 134.3, 129.8 (2C), 129.4 (2C),

methylene (δH 2.90, δC 36.9), a methoxyl (δH 3.70, δC 52.9) and three carbonyls (δC
137
171.1, 169.9, 165.4), were also observed in the 1H and
138
analysis of 2D NMR data allowed the establishment of the structure of 2. The 1H–1H
139
COSY correlation of H-2/H-3, and the HMBC correlations (Figure 2B) from H-2 to
140
C-4, and from H-3 to C-1, indicated the presence of butanedioic acid moiety. The
141
HMBC correlations from H-2, H-2′, H-6′ to C-7′, and from the methoxy protons to
142
the carbonyl C-4 (δC 169.9), implied that a benzoyl group and methoxyl were attached
143
to C-2 and C-4, respectively. The absolute configuration of compound 2 was
144
determined by comparing its specific rotation with that of reported compound,
145
(S)-benzoyl malic acid dimethyl ester (2a) (see Supporting information).11 Thus,
146
compound 2 was assigned as an S configuration based on its specific rotation being a
147
negative value ([α]25D = -29). Finally, the structure of compound 2 was elucidated as
148
(2S) 2-O-benzoyl-butanedioic acid-4-methyl ester.

C NMR spectra. Further
149
Compound 3, colorless amorphous solid, had the molecular formula C14H16O7, as
150
determined by HRESIMS at m/z 295.0780 [M-H]- (calcd for C14H15O7, 295.0818).
151
Similar to compound 2, five aromatic protons signal at δH 8.03 (2H, d, J = 8.1 Hz),
152
7.67 (1H, t, J = 8.1 Hz), 7.55 (2H, t, J = 8.1 Hz), and corresponding carbon signals at
153
δC 133.6, 129.8 (2C), 129.1 (2C), 130.8, and 165.9, were observed in the 1H and 13C
154
NMR spectra (Table 1), which suggested the presence of a benzoyl moiety in 3. In
155
addition, the carbon signals at δC 176.0, 77.7, 74.2, 66.4, 64.8, 40.5, and 38.6, implied
156
the presence of a quinic acid. Detailed analysis of 2D NMR data (including 1H–1H
157
COSY, HSQC and HMBC) allowed the determination of the structure of compound 3.

158
The 1H–1H COSY correlations assigned a linkage of C-2 to C-6 (drawn with bold
159
bond in Figure 2C), combination of the HMBC correlations (Figure 2C) from H-2 and
160
H-6 to C-7, supported the presence of quinic acid moiety. The benzoyl moiety was
161
located to C-4 by the HMBC correlation from H-4 to C-7′. Therefore, the structure of
162
compound 3 was elucidated as 4-O-benzoyl-quinic acid.
163
Six know compounds were identified as 4-O-benzoyl-quinic acid methyl ester (4),

As described in the experimental part, the ethanol extract of the fruits of F. hirta
170
(FH) was fractionated to four sub-fractions (FH1−FH4) by D101 macro rein column
171
chromatography. The extract and all of the sub-fractions and isolates were evaluated
172
for their antifungal activities against P. italicum. As shown in Figure 3, fractions
173
FH2−FH4 showed stronger antifungal activities with concentration-dependent manner
174
than that of FH, while FH1 did not show any activity. Due to the amount of fraction
175
FH2 account for around 33% of the total FH extract, the isolation work was focused
176
on the FH2 fraction, which led to the isolation of nine monosubstituted benzene
177
derivatives (1−9). The antifungal activities of all the isolates were tested at two
178
concentrations (2.0 and 4.0 mg/mL), due to the the limited available amount of the
179
isolates. The results showed that only compound 1 showed antifungal activity with the
180
DIZs of 21.0 ± 0.5 mm and 26.7 ± 0.6 mm at 2.0 and 4.0 mg/mL, respectively, which
9

181
are stronger than that of FH (11.0 ± 0.6 mm at 2.0 mg/mL), and comparable to that of
182
FH2 (25.0 ± 0.7 mm at 2.0 mg/mL).
183
In summary, nine monosubstituted benzene derivatives including three new ones
184
(1−3) were isolated from the antifungal activity fraction of the ethanol extract of the
185
fruits of F. hirta. New compound 1 showed stronger antifungal activity against P.
186
italicum than that of ethanol extract at the same concentration, suggested that
187
compound 1 may be a potential naturally occurring fungicide.
