RESUMEN
From the EtOAc-soluble extract of the stems of Buchanania lucida, one new lignan, (+)-(8S,8'S)-5'-methoxy-4,4'-di-O-methylsecoisolariciresinol (1), together with five known compounds (2-6) were isolated. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of NMR spectroscopic interpretation. The absolute configuration of 1 was determined based on the Cotton effects in the ECD spectrum. In the tyrosinase inhibitory activity test, p-hydroxybenzoic acid (6) showed the strong effect, with an IC50 value of 9.35 µM.

The phytochemical investigation of the EtOAc-soluble fraction of the aerial parts of Solanum procumbens Lour. has been carried out to obtain seven compounds, including a new 8,3'-neolignan named solacanin A (1). Their chemical structures were elucidated based on the spectroscopic data interpretation. All isolated compounds were tested for their α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. Compounds 1 and 3-6 showed inhibitory activity with IC50 values of 221.5, 18.9, 6.0, 104.1, and 219.7 µM, respectively.[Formula: see text].

From the EtOAc-soluble extract of the stems of Streblus ilicifolius (Moraceae), two new secondary metabolites named strebluses A (1) and B (2) were isolated. Their chemical structures have been concluded based on the chemical derivatisation and the spectroscopic interpretation. All compounds have been tested for their tyrosinase inhibitory activity. They showed weaker inhibitory activity than that of kojic acid (IC50, 44.6 µM).[Formula: see text].

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).

A phytochemical investigation of the rhizomes of Curcuma zedoaria was carried out, leading to the isolation of a new diphenylheptanoid, zedoaroxane A (1), together with four known compounds (2-5). Their structures were elucidated based on NMR spectroscopic data. All isolated compounds possessed α-glucosidase inhibitory activity, with the IC50 values ranging from 35.2 to 89.0 µM, more potent than that of the positive control acarbose (IC50, 214.5 µM).

From the methanol extract of the wood of Mangifera gedebe (Anacardiaceae), we had isolated a new secondary metabolite named gedebic acid (1) and six known compounds (2-7). Their chemical structures were determined by spectroscopic methods as well as comparing with data in the literature. All compounds were tested for α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. Compounds 4-7 showed more potent inhibitory activity, with IC50 values ranging from 45.3 to 142.6 µM, than that of a positive control acarbose (IC50, 214.5 µM).

A novel and rare 1,4-dehydrated ceramide, embelamide (1), and a new C-glycoalkaloid which is based on a ß-carboline ring system, 1-(2'-deoxy-α-d-ribopyranosyl)-ß-carboline (4), were isolated from the CHCl3 soluble fraction of the leaves of Embelia ribes (Myrsinaceae), together with thirteen known compounds (2-3, 5-15). Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data. Compounds 1, and 5-12 possessed significant α-glucosidase inhibitory activity in a concentration-dependent manner, and showed more potent inhibitory activity, with IC50 values ranging from 1.3 to 155.0 µM, than that of a positive control acarbose (IC50, 214.5 µM).
