Characterisation of flavonoids in Orostachys japonicus A. Berger using HPLC–MS/MS: Contribution to the overall antioxidant effect
Orostachys japonicus cultivated in the Republic of Korea was analysed for flavonoid content via HPLC coupled to MS/MS. Amongst 16 compounds that were characterised, eight flavonoids and one alkaloid were characterised for the first time: two procyanidin dimer gallate isomers ( 1 and 2), epigallochat...

Summary: | Orostachys japonicus cultivated in the Republic of Korea was analysed for flavonoid content
via HPLC coupled to MS/MS. Amongst 16 compounds that were characterised, eight flavonoids and one alkaloid were characterised for the first time: two procyanidin dimer gallate isomers (
1 and
2), epigallochatechin-3-gallate (
3), two procyanidin dimer digallate isomers (
4 and
9), quercetin 3-
O-rhamnosyl-7-
O-glucoside (
6), myricetin 3-
O-glucoside (
10), kaempferol (
16) and

p-(
E,E,E)-coumaroylspermidine (
15). The identified compounds were quantified by HPLC–UV/DAD. The antioxidant activity of the
O. japonicus flavonoids was determined
via 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH
•), 2,2′-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) radical cation (ABTS
•+) and nitric oxide radical (NO
•) scavenging assays. |
