Aqueous ethanol extracts of powdered stems of Dendrobium loddigesii afforded three new phenolics including threo-7-Oethyl-9-O-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propionyl-guaiacylglycerol(1),(R)-4,5,4ʹ-trihydroxy-3,3ʹ,α-trimethoxybibe...Aqueous ethanol extracts of powdered stems of Dendrobium loddigesii afforded three new phenolics including threo-7-Oethyl-9-O-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propionyl-guaiacylglycerol(1),(R)-4,5,4ʹ-trihydroxy-3,3ʹ,α-trimethoxybibenzyl(2)and(S)-5,5′,7-trihydroxy-3′,4′-dimethoxyflavanone(3),together with eleven known analogues.Their structures were determined by extensive spectroscopic analysis.To identify natural antioxidants,whitening,and anti-aging agents,the abilities of these phenolics were assessed to scavenge the 1,2-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH)radical,their abilities to inhibit tyrosinase production,and their abilities to stimulate collagen production by human dermal fibroblasts-adult(HDFa)assay.It was found that compounds 1,4-8,13 and 14 exhibited significant DPPH radical scavenging activities,compound 10 exhibited tyrosinase inhibitory activity(IC_(50)37.904μg/mL),and compound 9 showed significant collagen production with an EC_(50)value of 3.182μg/mL.These results suggest that phenolic constituents from D.loddigesii may be candidate antioxidants,skin-whitening and/or anti-aging agents.展开更多
