1. Introduction
The flowers of Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat., Flos Chrysanthemi, which are cultivated in Zhejiang Province as ‘Hangbaiju′ (HJ), have been widely and traditionally consumed in China as a medicinal and edible cognate for about 2000 years. As a well-known herb medicine, HJ is used for its efficacy in dispersing cold, eliminating heat, and improving liver function [1]. Simultaneously, tea made from HJ with hot or boiling water is a popular beverage that cools fever and heightens eyesight [2]. The biological activities of HJ have been exhaustively reported and include cardiovascular protection [3], anti-oxidation [4,5,6], anti-human immune deficiency viruses activity [7,8], anti-inflammatory activity [9], vasorelaxant activity [10], neuroprotective activity [11], anti-cancer activity [12,13], hepatoprotective effects [14,15], aldose reductase inhibition [16,17], and anti-mutagenesis activity [18]. Because of its diversiform and appealing pharmacological activities, HJ has been the subject of intense investigation. Previous research hasshown that HJ containes a wide variety of chemical compounds, including flavonoids and their corresponding glucosides [6,7,8], caffeoylquinic acids [4,5], sesquiterpenes [19], triterpenes [9], and unsaturated fatty acids [20]. Among them, caffeoylquinic acids, flavonoids, and their corresponding glycosides were considered to be the main bioactive ingredients. As such, it is imperative that efforts are exerted to develop more new bioactive compounds from this flower. We herewith report the isolation and elucidation of two new caffeoylquinic acid derivatives (1, 2), a new flavanone glycoside (3), and six reported flavanones (4–9) (Figure 1). The structures of the new compounds were identified by analyzing spectroscopic data (1D and 2D NMR, MS, IR, ECD, ORD, and UV). The isolated compounds 1–8 were also examined for their neuroprotective and hepatoprotective properties. The isolation, structure determination, and bioactivity of these compounds are described in this paper.
2. Results and Discussion
2.1. Structural Elucidation
Here, an 80% ethanol extract of C. morifolium flowers cv. HJ was fractionated sequentially with petroleum ether, EtOAc, and n-butanol, and the n-butanol fraction was successively subjected to column chromatography with HP-20 and SP-700 macroporous absorption resins, Sephadex LH-20, and purified by semi-preparative RP–HPLC to afford three new compounds (1–3) and six previously known compounds (4–9) (Figure 1). By comparing their NMR and MS data with values reported in the literature, the known isolates were identified as eriodictyol (4) [21], eriodictyol 7-O-β-
Compound 1, a white, amorphous power, possesses a molecular formula of C29H32O14, which was determined by HRESIMS (m/z 627.1704 [M + Na]+, calculated for C29H32NaO14, 627.1684) and 13C-NMR data, corresponding to 14 degrees of unsaturation. The IR spectrum displayed characteristic absorptions of hydroxy (3365 cm−1), carbonyl (1711 cm−1), and aromatic ring (1522 and 1445 cm−1) groups. The 1H- NMR data (Table 1) of 1 showed signals readily corresponding to two sets of ABX systems at δH 7.03 (1H, d, J = 2.0 Hz, H-2′′), 6.78 (1H, d, J = 8.0 Hz, H-5′), 6.94 (1H, dd, J = 8.0, 2.0 Hz, H-6′) and 6.76 (1H, d, J = 2.0 Hz, H-2′′), 6.67 (1H, d, J = 8.0 Hz, H-5′′), 6.58 (1H, dd, J = 8.0, 2.0 Hz, H-6′′), belonging to two tri-substituted benzene rings, and two typical trans olefinic protons at δH 7.58 (1H, d, J = 16.0 Hz, H-7′) and 6.24 (1H, d, J = 16.0 Hz, H-8′). The proton spin system of H-7′/H-8′ in 1H-1H COSY (Figure 2a) spectra was observed, in addition to HMBC correlations (Figure 2a) from H-7′ to C-1′, C-2′, C-6′, and C-9′ and from H-8′ to C-1′ and C-9′. Taken together, the above NMR data suggested the existence of a caffeoyl motif in the structure. A quinic acid moiety was revealed via 1H NMR resonances of three oxymethine protons at δH 5.44 (m, H-5), 4.90 (m, H-4), and 4.28 (m, H-3), together with two sets of sp3 methylene protons at δH 2.06 (m, 2H) and δH 1.70 (2H, m) for H2-2 and H2-6, respectively, as shown in Table 1. In combination with the HSQC correlations, these resonances corresponded to three oxygenated methine carbons at δC 69.4 (C-5), 76.3 (C-4), 70.3 (C-3), as well as to two sp3 methylene carbons at δC 40.2 (C-6) and 38.2 (C-2). In addition, there were an oxygenated tertiary carbon at δC 75.2 (C-1) and a carbonyl at δC 175.9 (C-7) in the 13C-NMR spectrum, which are characteristic of a quinic acid unit. The assignments for the quinic acid nucleus were confirmed by analysis of the 1H-1H COSY cross peaks H-2ax/H-3/H-4/H-5/H-6ax and HMBC correlation from H-2ax to C-7 (175.9). The HMBC correlation between δH 4.90 (H-4) and 168.2 (C-9′) suggested the caffeoyl group was esterified to 4-OH of the quinic acid. Besides the signals of a caffeoyl group and a quinic acid, additional 13 carbon resonances were observed. After analyzing the 1H, 13C, and HSQC data, the remaining signals were attributed to one carbonyl groups (δC 171.8), six aromatic carbons (one ABX system, δC 131.7, 115.2, 146.6, 146.7, 116.0, and 119.8), three oxygenated methane groups (δC 84.3, 75.4, 100.2), one methylene group (δC 57.2), and two secondary methyls (δC 20.3, 21.2). The assignments of substitution pattern and planar structure of compound 1 were further confirmed by analysis of the 1H-1H COSY and HMBC correlations. The 1H-1H COSY cross peaks H-7′′/H-8′′/H-10′′/ H3-11′′ together with the HMBC correlations from H-7′′, H-8′′, and C-9′′ established the structural fragment C-7′′–C-8′′–(C-9′′)–C-10′′−C-11′′. The 1H-1H COSY cross peaks H-12′′/H3-13′′ and HMBC correlations from H-12′′ to C-7′′ and C-10′′ enabled the establishment of a 2,6-dimethyl-5-carboxyl-1,3-dioxane ring. The HMBC correlations from H-7′′ to C-1′′, C-2′′, and C-6′′ and from H-8′′ to C-1′′ indicated the connectivity C-7′′–C-1′′. Moreover, the HMBC correlations from H-5 to C-9′′ confirmed C-9′′ is connected with C-3 via an ester bond. Thus, the planar structure of 1 is shown in Figure 1. The relative configuration of 1 was determined by the coupling constant and ROESY data (Figure 2b). The J7′′, 8′′ and J8′′, 10′′ values of 10.0 Hz [25] together with the ROESY correlations from H-10′′ to H-7′′ and H-12′′ suggested that H-7′′, H-10′′, and H-12′′ are cis-orientated. Attempts to determine the absolute configuration of compound 1 were unsuccessful due to the insufficient amount of sample. Thus, the structure of 1 was identified as (rel)-(7′′R,8′′R,10′′R,12′′R)-5-O-[4-(3, 4-dihydroxyphenyl)-2,6-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-5-carboxyl]-4-O-caffeoylquinic acid. Determined by HRESIMS (m/z 601.1537 [M + Na]+, calculated for C27H30NaO14, 601.1528), compound 2, a white, amorphous power, possesses the molecular formula of C27H30O14, corresponding to 13 degrees of unsaturation. The UV spectra (λmax 330, 288 nm) was highly similar to that of 1 (λmax 331, 288 nm), which indicated that compound 2 may be a caffeoylquinic acid derivative as well. The detailed analyses of 1D NMR (Table 1) and HSQC spectra suggested the presence of 3 carbonyls, 12 aromatic carbons, 2 olefinic carbons, 1 secondary methyl, 2 methylenes, 6 oxygenated methines, and 1 oxygenated quaternary carbon. Compared with those of 1, these characteristic signals imply that one quinic moiety and one caffeoyl group exist in the structure of 2. The assignments of substitution pattern and planar structure of compound 2 were further confirmed by analysis of the 1H-1H COSY and HMBC correlations (Figure 3a). The 1H-1H COSY cross peaks H-7′′/H-8′′/H-10′′/ H3-11′′ together with the HMBC correlations from H-7′′, H-8′′, and H-10′′ established the structural fragment C-7′′–C-8′′–(C-9′′)–C-10′′−C-11′′. The HMBC correlations from H-7′′ to C-1′′, C-2′′, and C-6′′ and from H-8′′ to C-1′′ indicated the connectivity C-7′′–C-1′′. The HMBC correlations from H-2′′ to C-7′′ and from C-4′′ and H-6′′ to C-4′′ along with that from H-5′′ to C-3′′ suggested the presence of a 1, 3, 4-trisubstituted phenyl unit. Moreover, the HMBC correlations from H-3 to C-9′′ confirmed C-9′′ is connected with C-3 via an ester bond, whereas the HMBC cross-peak of H-4 with its ester carbonyl carbon C-9′ indicated the attachment of the caffeoyl group at C-4. On the basis of these results, the planar structure of 2 was assigned as shown in Figure 1. In the ROESY spectra (Figure 3b), the correlation from H-7′′ to H-10′′, together with the coupling constant of H-7′′ and H-8′′, confirmed that H-7′′ and H-8′′ are trans-orientated, and H-7′′ and H-10′′ are cofacial. Consequently, 2 was established as (rel)-(7′′R,8′′R,10′′R,12′′R)-5-O-[8-(1′-hydroxyethyl)]-dihydrocaffeoyl-4-O-caffeoylquinic aicd.
The molecular formula of compound 3, a white, amorphous solid, was assigned to be C27H32O16, as deduced from HRESIMS (m/z 635.1554 [M + H]+ and calculated for C27H32NaO16, 635.1583) and 13C-NMR spectra. The IR spectrum showed absorption bands at 1580, 1519, and 1441 cm−1 (benzyl) and strong absorption bands at 3328 and 1635 cm−1 (hydroxyl, carbonyl, respectively). The 1H-NMR data showed resonances at δH 5.50 (1H, m, H-2), 3.32 (1H, m, H-3), and 2.75 (1H, dd, J = 17.0, 2.0 Hz, H-3) (Table 2). These evidence, together with characteristic UV absorption bands at 283, 333 nm, suggested the presence of a flavanone skeleton [26]. The 1H-NMR data showed one ABX spin system aromatic proton signals at δH 7.38 (1H, d, J = 2.0 Hz, H-2′), 7.03 (1H, dd, J = 8.0, 2.0 Hz, H-6′), 6.85 (1H, d, J = 2.0 Hz, H-5′), attributed to the B ring of the flavanone skeleton, two aromatic doublets at δH 6.17 (1H, d, J = 2.0 Hz, H-8) and 6.14 (1H, d, J = 2.0 Hz, H-6), assignable to the A ring, as well as well as two phenolic hydroxyl groups at δH 12.06 and 8.84. In addition, protons of two β-glucose moieties, for which the anomeric protons resonated at δH 4.97 (1H, d, J = 7.5 Hz, H-1′′), 4.73 (1H, d, J = 7.0 Hz, H-1′′′), respectively, were found in the high-field region. The 13C-NMR spectrum exhibited 27 carbon signals, corresponding to a flavanone skeleton bearing two hydroxyl units and two sugar moieties. The locations of two glucose units were determined at C-7 and C-3′ on the basis of the cross-peak from the anomeric protons H-1″ to C-7, and H-1″′ to C-3′ in the HMBC spectra (Figure 4). The coupling constant (J = 7.5 Hz, H-1′′ and H-1′′′) of two anomeric protons indicated two β-glycosidic linkages. The

3.2. Plant Materials
The dried flower of C. morifolium Ramat. was collected in Tongxiang, Zhejiang province, China, in September 2014. The plant was identified by Professor Lin Ma Institute of Materia Medica, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, Beijing.
3.3. Extraction and Isolation
Dried flowers of C. morifolium Ramat. (100 kg) were extracted three times with 80% EtOH (3 × 150 L) under reflux for 3 h. The EtOH solution was evaporated under reduced pressure, and then the dark brown residue (6.4 kg) was suspended in H2O (10 L) and fractionated sequentially using petroleum ether (5 × 10 L), EtOAc (5 × 10 L), and n-BuOH (6 × 10 L). The n-BuOH-soluble fraction (2355 g) was subjected to chromatography on an HP-20 macroporous absorption resin column (200 cm × 15 cm i.d.) and eluted successively with 0, 15, 30, 50, 75, and 95% ethanol (50 L each). The 30% ethanol solution (480 g) was fractionated by column chromatography (200 cm × 10 cm i.d.) on the adsorptive macroporous resin SP-700, eluting with 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 50, and 95% EtOH (30 L each) to afford seven fractions (fractions A–G).
Fraction D (80 g) was separated on a Sephadex LH-20 column (120 cm × 8 cm i.d.), eluting with a MeOH/H2O mixture (0–100%, with 10% stepwise increase of MeOH, 10 L each) to give fractions D1–D10. Fraction D5 was further chromatographed on a Sephadex LH-20 column (150 cm × 5 cm i.d.) with MeOH/H2O (0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 85, and 100%, v/v, 2 L each) to generate fractions D5-1–D5-23. All of these sub-fractions were further chromatographed on Sephadex LH-20 columns and purified by semi-preparative HPLC. Fraction D5-7 afforded compounds 1 (2 mg) and 2 (5 mg), using MeOH/H2O/HOAc (30:70:0.1, v/v) as the mobile phase at 3 mL/min. Fraction D7 was fractionated by semi-preparative HPLC using MeOH/H2O/HOAc (40:60:0.1, v/v) at 3 mL/min to produce compounds 3 (18 mg), 4 (6 mg), and 5 (13 mg). Compounds 6 (9 mg), 7 (11 mg), 8 (8 mg), and 9 (6 mg) were obtained from fraction D6 using MeOH/H2O/HOAC (40:60:0.1, v/v) as the mobile phase at 3 mL/min.

3.6. Hepatoprotective Activity Assay
HepG2 cells were cultured in DMEM with 10% FCS, penicillin (100 U/mL), and streptomycin (100 μg/mL) at 37 °C (5% CO2, 100% relative humidity). These cells were digested using 0.25% trypsin and then seeded into 96-well plates. After incubation for 24 h, the cells were treated with the isolated compounds (10 μM) and APAP (8 mM) and incubated for 48 h. A volume of 100 μL of MTT solution (0.5 mg/mL) was then added into each well. After incubation for 4 h at 37 ℃, the cells were finally lysed with 150 μL DMSO. Finally, the absorbance was measured at 570 nm with a microplate reader, using bicyclol as the positive control. The results were expressed as percentage of cell viability (%), hypothesizing the viability of control cells as 100%.

Human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells were maintained in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS, 100 U/mL penicillin, and 100 µg/mL streptomycin at 37 ℃ under a water-saturated atmosphere of 5% CO2. The cells were seeded in 96-well culture plates (1 × 104 cells/well) in 100 μL for 18 h, then incubated with the isolated compounds (10 μL, 10 μM) for 4 h. In order to induce an oxidative stress, 100 μL freshly prepared culture medium with 200 μM H2O2 (IC50 = 128.5 μM) was added to the cells and incubated with the compounds at 37 °C for 24 h. Then, 10 μL MTT solution (5 mg/mL) was added into each well. After incubation for 4 h at 37 °C, the cells were finally lysed with 150 μL DMSO. The absorbance was measured at 570 nm, using l-NBP (l-3-n-butylphthalide) as the positive control. The results were expressed as percentage of cell viability (%).
4. Conclusions
In summary, two new caffeoylquinic acid derivatives (1,2), a new flavanone glycoside (3), and six reported flavanone glycosides (4–9), were isolated and characterized from the dried flowering head of C. morifolium Ramat. The in vitro evaluation of neuroprotective activity suggested that compounds 3 and 4 could improve cell viability at a concentration of 10 μM. This paper not only enriches the chemical diversity of C. morifolium compounds but also provides useful clues on the neuroprotective agents of C. morifolium Ramat cv. “HJ”, which will contribute to the development and application of this functional food. Further investigations should be implemented to examine the neuroprotective activity in vivo and the required isolates’ concentrations and provide real biological significance in the future.

Abstract
The Chrysanthemum morifolium flower is widely used in China and Japan as a food, beverage, and medicine for many diseases. In our work, two new caffeoylquinic acid derivatives (1, 2), a new flavanone glycoside (3), and six reported flavanones (4–9) were isolated and identified from the flowers of C. morifolium. The chemical structures of all isolates were elucidated by the analysis of comprehensive spectroscopic data as well as by comparison with previously reported data. The isolated constituents 1–8 were evaluated for their neuroprotective activity, and compounds 3 and 4 displayed neuroprotective effects against hydrogen peroxide-induced neurotoxicity in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells.
