The young leaves and shoots of Sibiraea laevigata, known as "Liucha", are used as tea by Tibetans to improve digestion after meals. Long-term consumption of "Liucha" will cause weight loss. In present work, we reported on the isolation and NMR and chemical analysis-based elucidation of seven new sorbitol O-caffeic acid ester derivatives named sorbitol esters A-G (1-7) and eighteen known phenolic compounds from S. laevigata. All of the isolates were evaluated for their antioxidant and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities. Among them sorbitol ester A (1), sorbitol ester D (4), sorbitol ester F (6), sorbitol ester G (7), isoferulic acid (15), methyl caffeate (18), trans-p-hydroxycinnamic acid (19), and kaempferol 3-O-β-d-(6″-E-p-coumaroyl)-glucopyranoside (25) showed more potent α-glucosidase inhibitory activity than the clinical drug acarbose.
光滑山刺玫的幼叶和嫩枝被称为“柳茶”,藏族人将其用作茶饮以促进饭后消化。长期饮用“柳茶”会导致体重减轻。在本研究中,我们报道了从光滑山刺玫中分离出7种新的山梨醇O - 咖啡酸酯衍生物,命名为山梨醇酯A - G(1 - 7),以及18种已知的酚类化合物,并基于核磁共振和化学分析对其进行了结构解析。对所有分离物的抗氧化和α - 葡萄糖苷酶抑制活性进行了评估。其中,山梨醇酯A(1)、山梨醇酯D(4)、山梨醇酯F(6)、山梨醇酯G(7)、异阿魏酸(15)、咖啡酸甲酯(18)、反式对羟基肉桂酸(19)和山柰酚3 - O - β - d -(6″ - E - 对香豆酰) - 吡喃葡萄糖苷(25)表现出比临床药物阿卡波糖更强的α - 葡萄糖苷酶抑制活性。
