Abstract

The phytochemical investigation of the n-butanol soluble fraction of Symplocos racemosa Roxb. resulted in the isolation of a new dithiadiazetidin derivative; symploate (1). Its structure was established through various 1D and 2D NMR techniques together with high-resolution mass spectrometric techniques and spectral evidences. The symploate (1) showed moderate inhibitory activity against α-glucosidase in a concentration-dependent fashion with an IC50 value of 691.1 ± 3.29 μM.
