Chem Biodivers. 2006 Feb;3(2):224-30. | New antioxidant phenolic glycosides from Walsura yunnanensis.[Pubmed: 17193261 ] | METHODS AND RESULTS: Four new polyphenolic glycosides (1-4) were isolated from the BuOH extract of the bark of Walsura yunnanenis C. Y. Wu.
These compounds comprise two lignans, i.e., the 9-O-alpha-L-arabinopyranosides 1 and 2 of (-)-isolariciresinol and of (+)-5-Methoxyisolariciresinol, respectively, and the two phenolic glycosides 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl 2-O-(alpha-L-fucopyranosyl)-beta-D-glucopyranoside (3) and 3,5-dihydroxyphenyl 6-O-(4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxybenzoyl)-beta-D-glucopyranoside (walsuraside; 4). In addition, three known compounds, 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl beta-D-glucopyranoside, asperglaucide, and butyl alpha-D-fructofuranoside were identified. Their structures were elucidated spectroscopically and by chemical transformation (hydrolysis).
CONCLUSIONS:
The new compounds 1, 2, and 4 displayed significant antioxidant activities, with IC(50) values in the range of ca. 42 to 49 microg/ml. |
