Two new compounds, along with two known compounds, were isolated from the barks of Parabarium huaitingii, and their structures were determined as 5α-pregn-6-ene-3β,17α,20(S)-triol-20-O-β-d-digitoxopyranoside (1), cymaropyranurolactone 4-O-β-d-digitalopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-O-β-d-cymaropyranosyl-(1 → 4)-O-β-d-oleandropyranosyl-(1 → 4)-O-β-d-cymaropyranoside (2), 3β,17α,20(S)-trihydroxy-5α-pregn-6-ene (3), and 5α-pregn-6-ene-3β,17α,20(S)-triol-3-O-β-d-digitalopyranoside (4) by spectroscopic methods.

Eight phenolic compounds, including (-)-epicatechin (1) and seven proanthocyanidins (2-8), were obtained from the butanol extract of Parabarium huaitingii (PHB). Their chemical structures were identified based on analyses of mass spectra (MS), NMR, CD spectra, and partial acid catalyzed thiolytic degradation. The observation made by laser scanning confocal microscope found a significant increase of the concentration of intracellular Ca²+ ([Ca²+](i)) in single myocytes when the PHB was added, while compounds 1 and 3 had the same physiological effect.

Three new phenylpropanoid-substituted epicatechin glycosides, namely parabarosides A - C ( 1- 3), together with three known compounds, 5-caffeoylquinic acid (4), 5-caffeoylshikimic acid (5), and 3,4-dicaffeoylquinic acid (6), were obtained from the plant Parabarium huaitingii. Their structures were determined and full assignments of (1)H- and (13)C-NMR spectroscopic data were achieved by analyses of 1D- and 2D-NMR, mass, and CD spectra. The oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay was applied to evaluate their antioxidative capacity in vitro, which revealed that 1- 6 showed strong antioxidative properties.
