Abstract
The ethylacetate fraction of the methanol extract of Duranta repens L. (Verbenaceae) showed radicalscavenging activity in the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay. Three compounds were isolated from this fraction, i.e. the phenylethanoid glycoside acteoside, the iridoid lamiide and the saponin pseudo-ginsenoside-RT1. Acteoside showed an IC50 of 3.05 +/- 0.09 microg/mL in the DPPH assay, while lamiide and pseudo-ginsenoside-RT1 were not active. Copyright 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.Entities:
