Article Synopsis
- This study is the first to investigate the phytochemistry of Cynophalla mollis and Colicodendron scabridum, both from the Capparaceae family, identifying several compounds like lupeol and quercetin-3,4'-di-O-rhamnoside.
- The researchers utilized various purification and identification techniques, including preparative liquid chromatography and NMR spectroscopy, to reveal the structures of these compounds, particularly focusing on the rare flavonoid quercetin-3,4'-di-O-rhamnoside.
- Although the extracts showed no antioxidant activity at a tested dose of 1 mg/mL, some isolated compounds displayed significant antioxidant capacities, particularly narcissoside, which was the most effective against ABTS radicals
