New Chemical Constituents from the Bark of <i>Dendropanax morbifera</i> Leveille and Their Evaluation of Antioxidant Activities

Abstract

Four new constituents, as cis-6-oxogeran-4-enyl-10-oxy-O-β-arabinopyranosyl-4′-O-β-arabinopyranosyl-2″-octadec-9‴,12‴,15‴-trienoate (1), geran-3(10)-enyl-1-oxy-O-β-arabinopyranosyl-4′-O-β-arabinopyranosyl-2″-octadec-9‴,12‴,15‴-trienoate (2), geranilan-8-oxy-O-α-d-xylopyranosyl-2′-n-octadec-9″,12″,15″-trienoate (3), 1-cyclohex-2′, 5′-dienyl 1-cyclohexylethanol-O-β-d-xylopyranoside (4), along with six known constituents, guaiacol-O-β-d-arabinopyaranoside (5), n-tetradecanyl oleate (6), oleyl-O-β-d-xyloside (7), n-octadec-9,12-dienoyl-O-β-d-arabinopyranoside (8), linolenyl-O-β-d-arabinofuranoside (9) andglyceryl-1,3-dipalmito-2-olein (10), were isolated and identified from the Dendropanax morbifera bark. The new structures were established by one-and two-dimensional NMR (and in combination with IR, FAB-MSand HR-ESI-FTMS. The comparative evaluation of antioxidant potential by phosphomolybdenum, DPPH, FRAP and the NO assay of four different compounds (1−4), we have found that the compounds 1 and 2 have power as a natural antioxidant, whereas the compound 3 and 4 exhibited mild activity in comparison to compounds 1 and 2.
