Two new aromatic glycosides, elengiosides A and B, from the flowers of Mimusops elengi

Journal of Natural Medicines Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

Two new aromatic glycosides, elengiosides A (1) and B (2), were isolated from the methanolic extract of the flowers of Mimusops elengi (Sapotaceae) together with 26 known compounds. Their stereostructures were elucidated based on their spectroscopic properties and chemical evidence. Among the isolates, a phenylethanoid glycoside, undatuside C (14), was found to exhibit hyaluronidase inhibitory activity.
