Isolation and Characterization of Flavonol glycoside as Antioxidant and Antidiabetic Compounds from Ebony (DiospyroscelebicaBakh.)Leaf Ethanol Extract
Main Article Content
Abstract
Ebony (Diospyroscelebica.Bakh) is an Indonesian medicinal plant used as antidiabetic herbs. A previous study found that the ethanol extract of ebony leaf has strong antioxidant and α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. The aim of this study was to isolate and characterize antioxidant and antidiabetic compounds from the leaves of Ebony. Powdered ebony leaves were extracted with 96% ethanol, and then fractionated with ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate fraction was purified by column chromatography which led to the isolation of compound Fr.36-13a.The structure of compoundFr.36-13awas elucidated through a combination of 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and 2D-NMR spectroscopy. The antioxidant activity of compound Fr.36-13awas determined by DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl) radical scavenging assay. The antidiabetic activity of the compound was assessed in vitro by the α-glucosidase inhibitory assay. Compound Fr.36-13a was identified as kaempferol-3-O-β-glucoside through the 1D and 2D NMR data, and by comparison of the spectroscopic data with literature values. Compound Fr.36-13a (Kaempferol-3-O-β-glucoside) showed strong antioxidant and antidiabetic activities by scavenging DPPH radical and inhibiting α-glucosidase enzyme. Kaempferol-3-O-β-glucoside could serve as a potential therapeutic agents for the treatment of diabetes mellitus.
