In the present study, a new C-geranylated flavone, paucatalinone C(1) and five known C-geranylated flavanones(2-6) were isolated. In addition, a total of 34 C-geranylated flavonoids were detected by HPLC-DAD-ESI-MS/MS coupling techniques from the CH_2Cl_2 extract of P. catalpifolia. Futhermore, anti-aging effects of isolated compounds were evaluated in vitro with premature senescent 2BS cells induced by H_2O_2. Phytochemical results indicated that P. catalpifolia was a natural resource of abundant C-geranylated flavonoids. Diplacone(3) and paucatalinone A(5) were the potent anti-aging agents in the premature senescent 2BS cells induced by H_2O_2 and the C-geranyl substituent may be an important factor because of its lipophilic character.展开更多
