  • Published:
Chemistry of Natural Compounds Aims and scope

A new flavonoid glycoside, apigenin 7-O-(2,4-di-O-acetyl)-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→6)-β-D-glucopyranoside (1), was isolated from the 95% EtOH extract of Galium verum L. by repeated column chromatography. Its structure was identified by spectral analyses and chemical methods. In addition, the rat intestinal α-glucosidase inhibitory activity of compound 1 was evaluated in vitro.
