Antioxidant capacity of flavonoids and a new arylphenol of the resinous exudate from Heliotropium sinuatum

Nat Prod Res. 2003 Dec;17(6):403-7. doi: 10.1080/14786410310001617668.

Abstract

From the resinous exudate of Heliotropium sinuatum (family Boraginaceae), a new compound: 4-(3',5'-dihydroxynonadecyl)phenol 1, together with eight previously described flavonoids, were isolated and their antioxidant activities were assessed by quenching measurements with ABTS and DPPH cation radicals.
