Abstract:
From an ethyl acetate-soluble fraction of the leaves of Muntingia calabura, one new trimeric δ-tocopherol derivative named as tocomuntin A (1), together with three known δ-tocopherol derivatives (2-4) were isolated. Their structures were elucidated based on the interpretation of NMR and MS spectroscopic data. In this work, δ-tocopherol (3) was found to have α-glucosidase inhibitory activity for the first time (IC50, 47.3 μM).
