Abstract
|
|
|
|
A novel norlignan derivative, crassifogenin C (1), and a known compound, curcapital (2), were isolated from the ethanolic extract of the rhizomes of Curculigo crassifolia. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic evidence and comparisons with literature data. Curcapital (2) was isolated from this plant for the first time. The free radical scavenging activity of the isolated compounds along with crassifoside E (3) and crassifoside F (4), which were reported previously, was evaluated by the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay. All compounds showed strong radical scavenging activity. The primary structure-activity relationship is also discussed.
