摘要
Glucolesquerellin (2), glucohesperin (3), quercetin 3-O-sophoroside (4), and quercetin 3-O-sophoroside-7-O-glucoside (5), isolated from the fruit of Dithyrea wislizenii, were quantified by HPLC. The fruit extract and flavonoids were not found to be toxic by using a brine shrimp lethality assay. The fruit extract and the flavonoids and glucosinolates were submitted to a free-radical scavenging activity assay with the diphenylpicrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH •). The concentration of quercetin (6) (a positive control for the flavonoids) able to scavenge 50% of DPPH • (SC 50) was 32 ± 2 μmol/L (or 4 ± 1 μg/mL), which was about 27 times more potent than the crude extract. Compounds 4 and 5 had a SC 50, the concentration of the compound required to scavenge 50% of the DPPH •, of 78 ± 1 μmol/L and 113 ± 10 μmol/L, respectively. The positive control for the glucosinolates, glucoraphasatin, (1) had a SC 50 of 1768 ± 60 μmol/L. The glucosinolates 2 and 3 had a SC 50 of 7819 ± 1968 and 970 ± 63 μmol/L, respectively. © 2012 Published by NRC Research Press.
