Isolation and synthesis of a new bio-antimutagen, petasiphenol, from scapes of Petasites japonicum

A new bio-antimutagen, petasiphenol [3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-2-oxopropyl caffeate] (1) was isolated from scapes of Petasites japonicum (AD 50 =95μg/ml against UV-induced mutagenic E. coli WP2 B/r Trp − . Petasiphenol (1) and its isomer (2) were synthesized. The activity of 1 was observed in the pres...

Zusammenfassung:A new bio-antimutagen, petasiphenol [3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-2-oxopropyl caffeate] (1) was isolated from scapes of Petasites japonicum (AD 50 =95μg/ml against UV-induced mutagenic E. coli WP2 B/r Trp − . Petasiphenol (1) and its isomer (2) were synthesized. The activity of 1 was observed in the presence of soybean oil (glyceride), although the isomer (2) did not show any activity in doses up to 300, μg/ml.
