A series of phenylethyl cinnamides, which included new compounds named anhydromarmeline (1), aegelinosides A (7) and B (8), were isolated from Aegle marmelos leaves as a-glucosidase inhibitors. The structures of new compounds were characterized by spectroscopic data and chemical degradation. Of compounds isolated, anhydroaegeline (2) revealed the most potent inhibitory effect against a-glucosidase with IC50 value of 35.8 mu M. The present result also supports ethnopharmacological use of A. marmelos as a remedy for diabetes mellitus. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
