Abstract
Three neogrifolin derivatives, 3-hydroxyneogrifolin, 1-formylneogrifolin and 1-formyl-3-hydroxyneogrifolin
along with grifolin and neogrifolin were isolated from the Japanese mushroom Albatrellus
ovinus belonging to Scutigeraceae. Their structures were established by a combination
of two-dimensional NMR spectroscopic analyses and by chemical synthesis. 3-Hydroxyneogrifolin
and 1-formyl-3-hydroxy-neogrifolin showed more potent antioxidative activity properties
than either alpha-tocopherol or BHA.
