A novel phenylpropenoyl sulfonic acid and a new chlorophyll from the leaves of Petasites formosanus KITAMURA

Chem Pharm Bull (Tokyo). 2004 Sep;52(9):1151-2. doi: 10.1248/cpb.52.1151.

Abstract

A novel phenylpropenoyl sulfonic acid, petasiformin-A (1), and a new chlorophyll, petasiphyll-A (2), were isolated from the leaves of Petasites formosanus KITAMURA (Compositae). Their structures were established by spectral and chemical transformation methods. Petasiformin-A (1) showed the significant antioxidative activity in DPPH radical scavenging assay.
