Method: Eosin Y was used as the photosensitizer to activate the oxygen in the air to synthesize novel diosgenin derivatives with peroxo-bridge. The structures of synthesized compounds were identified by NMR and HR-MS. Their cytotoxicity and antihepatitis B activity were evaluated via MTS assay and ELISA method, respectively. Results: Six diosgenin derivatives were synthesized, three of which contained peroxo-bridge, and their structures were confirmed by spectroscopy. It showed that 5a,8a-peroxo-6-alkenyl-diosgenin (7) could suppress the production of HBsAg on transfected HepG2.2.15 cells at low-toxic concentration and the in- hibition rate on HepG2.2.15 cells was 18.28% at 12.50 μg/mL, better than that of 3TC (7.30% at 12.50 μg/mL) and others. Conclusion: Due to its lower cytotoxicity and potential anti-hepatitis B activity, compound 7 could be developed as the promising candidate of anti-hepatitis B drug. It also indicated that the peroxo-bridged derivatives had potential biological values for developing clinical agents.展开更多
