Synthesis of hydroxycinnamoyl β-d-xylopyranosides and evaluation of their antioxidant properties
摘要:
Various hydroxycinnamoyl beta-D-xylopyranosides were efficiently prepared from 2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl-alpha-D-xylopyranosyl bromide (TAXB) with amine by amine-promoted glycosylation. The resulted acetylated hydroxycinnamoyl beta-D-xylopyranosides with acetoxy groups at C-2, C-3, and C-4 were regioselectively deacetylated at C-4 position with Novozym 435. Antioxidant activities of free hydroxycinnamic acids and the respective beta-D-xylopyranosides were evaluated by DPPH center dot radical scavenging activity as well as their inhibitory effect on autoxidation of bulk methyl linoleate. The radical scavenging activity on 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH center dot) decreased in the order ferulic acid > caffeic acid approximate to caffeoyl beta-D-xylopyranosides approximate to sinapinic acid > sinapoyl beta-D-xylopyranosides approximate to feruloyl beta-D-xylopyranosides > p-coumaric acid > p-coumaroyl beta-D-xylopyranosides. In bulk methyl linoleate, the antioxidant activity order against autoxidation was almost consistent with the scavenging activity order. The results showed that caffeoyl beta-D-xylopyranosides and sinapoyl beta-D-xylopyranosides were as effective as free caffeic acid, sinapinic acid, and ferulic acid. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
