Methods
General Experimental Procedures. UV spectra were recorded with a HPLC
photodiode array detector. The 1H and 13C NMR spectra were recorded on a 600 MHz
spectrometer with a 5 mm cryoprobe. 1H chemical shifts are referenced to the residual C6D6
(δ 7.15 ppm), and 13C chemical shifts are referenced to the C6D6 (δ 128.0 ppm) solvent peak.
Reversed-phase HPLC purifications were performed using a binary HPLC pump attached to a
photodiode array detector. All solvents used for HPLC were HPLC grade and were filtered
through a 0.45 μm filter prior to use.
Collection and extraction of plant material. Dried and powdered stem bark of C.
megalobotrys (1.2 Kg) were collected around Maun, Ngamiland District in North-Western
Botswana and were botanically authenticated by Joseph Madome of the Okavango Research
Institute (ORI) Herbarium where a voucher specimen has been deposited (KM-Ks-3-2015).
The plant material was extracted twice at room temperature with 4L of 1:1 mixture of
methylene chloride-methanol for 24h. The solvent was evaporated under reduce pressure to
give 35.07 g of crude Mukungulu extract.
Fractionation of crude extract. The crude extract (35.07 g) was partitioned using
(600 mL x 3) of methanol-water-hexane (2:1:1); methanol-water-ethyl acetate (2:1:1) and
methanol-water-n-butanol (2:1:1) to give 16.79 g of hexane fraction, 1.22 g of ethyl acetate
fraction, 3.82 g of n-butanol fraction and 10.23 g of aqueous fraction.
Purification of n-hexane and ethyl acetate fractions. 16.79 g of n-hexane fraction
were chromatographed on silica gel column with mixture of hexane-ethyl acetate of
increasing polarity. Fractions of 250 mL each were collected as follow: 1-5 (Hex 100% ); 6-
12 (Hex-EtOAc 5%); 13- 20 (Hex-EtOAc 10%); 21-27 (Hex-EtOAc 15%); 28-34 (Hex-
1
EtOAc 20%); 35-45 (Hex-EtOAc 25%); 46-52 (Hex-EtOAc 30%); 53-55 (Hex-EtOAc 50%);
56-57 (MeOH 100%). The fractions were matched according to their TLC profile into eight
series: F1 (1-5); F2 (6-11); F3 (12-19); F4 (20-29); F5 (30-34), F6 (35-50); F7 (52-55); F8 (56-
57). F6 (6.55 g) was absorbed on an equivalent mass of silica gel and chromatographed over a
silica gel column [diameter: 45 mm] with pure chloroform. Fractions of 10 mL were
collected. Fractions 18-37 afforded the semi purified sub-fraction Cmhex35b (1.53 g). The
ethyl acetate fraction (1.20 g) was adsorbed on an equivalent mass of silica gel and
chromatographed on a silica gel column [diameter: 20 mm] using CHCl3/MeOH of increasing
polarity as solvent system. The sub-fraction Cmhex35b was also obtained in large quantity
(936 mg) in pure chloroform (Figure S1).
HPLC Fractionation of CmHex35b and Isolation of Namushen-1 and Namushen-
2. The fraction, CmHex35b, containing the compounds of interest was subjected to reversed-
phase C18 HPLC using a InertSustain, 5 µm, 25 x 1 cm column for 50 min under isocratic
conditions with 4:1 MeCN/H2O as eluent followed by a linear gradient to 9:1 MeCN/H2O
over an additional 20 min to give pure samples of Namushen-1 and Namushen-2.
Namushen-1 was isolated as a clear glass [UV (4:1 MeCN/H2O) λmax 201, 236 nm; 1H
and 13C NMR; positive ion HRESITOFMS [M + Na]+ m/z 625.3745 (calculated for
C35H54O8Na, 625.3716), appropriate for a molecular formula of C35H54O8, requiring 9 sites of
unsaturation]. Examination of the 1H/13C/gCOSY/gHSQC/gHMBC/tROESY NMR data
(Table S1, Figures S2-S3), the results of which are summarized in Figure S4, and
comparison with previously reported 13C NMR data (Wu et al., 2009) revealed that
Namushen-1 was a new prostratin derivative with the structure assigned in Figures S2-S3.
Namushen-2 was isolated as a clear glass [UV (9:1 MeCN/H2O) λmax 201, 236 nm; 1H
and 13C NMR; positive ion HRESITOFMS [M + Na]+ m/z 653.4057 (calculated for
C37H58O8Na, 653.4029), appropriate for a molecular formula of C37H58O8, again requiring 9
2
sites of unsaturation]. The NMR spectra of Namushen-1 and Namushen-2 were remarkably
similar (Table S1), and the structures of the two compounds were found to only differ in the
length of the alkyl chain of the lipid of the ester functionality at C-13. The structure of
Namushen-2 was assigned as shown in Figures S5-S6.
