Anemonin is a tri-spirocyclic di butenolide natural product found in members of the buttercup family ( Ranunculaceae) such as R. bulbosus, R. ficaria, R. sardous, R. sceleratus, [2] and C. hirsutissima. [3] Originally isolated in 1792 by M. Heyer, [4] It is the dimerization product of the toxin protoanemonin. [5] One of the likely active agents in plants used in Chinese medicine as an anti-inflammatory [6] and Native American medicine as a horse stimulant, [3] its unique biological properties give it pharmaceutical potential as an anti-inflammatory and cosmetic agent.

Biosynthetic Origins

Protoanemonin
Ranunculin

Anemonin is a homodimer formed from two protoanemonin subunits. Protoanemonin is formed from the enzymatic cleavage of ranunculin upon crushing plant matter. [4] When a plant from this family is injured, a β-glucosidase cleaves ranunculin, liberating protoanemonin from glucose as a defense mechanism. [7] This butenolide readily dimerizes in aqueous media to form a single cyclodimer. [4]

Chemical Structure and Proposed Mechanism of Formation

Despite multiple possibilities, X-ray crystallography of the solid anemonin has revealed that the two rings exclusively possess a trans relationship. [8] The central cyclobutane ring was found to be bent to a dihedral angle of 152°. NMR spectroscopy reveals that the central ring is also twisted 9-11°. [9]

The highly selective formation of the head-to-head dimer has been rationalized through the stability of a proposed diradical intermediate; the resulting radicals after an initial carbon-carbon bond forming step are delocalized through the α,β-unsaturated system. [4] These proposed radicals could also be stabilized through the captodative effect, as they are situated between the enone and sp3-hybridized oxygen of the butenolides.

Destabilizing dipole-dipole interactions are proposed to disfavor the transition state where the two butenolide rings adopt a cis conformation, leading to selectivity of a trans relationship between the lactone rings. [4]

The formation of anemonin from protoanemonin is most likely a photochemical process. When Kataoka et. al compared the dimerization of protoanemonin in the presence and absence of radiation from a mercury lamp, they found a 75% yield with radiation and a very poor yield without radiation. It is not mentioned whether light was excluded from this control reaction; the low yield of anemonin may arise from visible light-mediated dimerization of protoanemonin. [10]

Pharmaceutical Potential

Anemonin possesses anti-inflammatory properties rather than the vesicant properties of its parent monomer. Numerous studies have demonstrated anemonin’s potential in treating ulcerative colitis, [11] cerebral ischemia, [12] and arthritis. [13] [14] Its activity against LPS-related inflammation [13] [15] and nitric oxide production [16] [6] contribute to its pharmaceutical potential. Anemonin also displays inhibition of melanin production in human melanocytes with mild cytotoxicity. [17]

Given its skin permeability in ethanolic solutions [18] and its anti-inflammatory and anti-pigmentation properties, anemonin may be a good candidate for topical formulations as arthritis medications or cosmetics. An extraction method with the potential for industrial-scale preparations of anemonin may provide inroads to drug development. [19]
