Antioxidant constituents from <i>Cotoneaster racemiflora</i>

Abstract

A new lignan rhamnoside, racemiside (1), has been isolated from the ethyl acetate-soluble fraction of Cotoneaster racemiflora, along with scopoletin (2), 7,8-dimethoxy-6-hydroxycoumarin (3), 3,3',4'-tri-O-methylellagic acid (4), and cereotagloperoxide (5), reported for the first time from this species. All of them showed profound antioxidative activities in the DPPH assay.
