The chromatographic separation of MeOH extract from the Quercus salicina Blume Stem led to the isolation of five phenolic compounds. Using spectroscopic methods, the structures of these compounds were determined as D-threo-guaiacylglycerol 8-O-beta-D-(6'-O-galloyl)glucopyranoside (1), 9-methoxy-D-threo-guaiacylglycerol 8-O-beta-D-(6'-O-galloyl)glucopyranoside (2), 6''-O-galloyl salidroside (3), methyl gallate (4), quercetin (5). We measured radical scavenging activity with the DPPH method and the anti-lipid peroxidative efficacy on human LDL with TBARS assay, with the result that all these compounds exhibited the antioxidative activity.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
