This paper reports the isolation of two undescribed phenolic glycosides (1 and 2), together with seven known compounds (3-9) from the branches of Viburnum chinshanense. The structures of undescribed compounds were elucidated by comprehensive spectroscopic methods (1D NMR, 2D NMR, and HRESIMS). The sugar units of compounds 1 and 2 were identified by acid hydrolysis and HPLC analysis of the chiral derivatives of the monosaccharides. Furthermore, the α‑amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities of all isolates were evaluated and compounds 1, 5, and 8 displayed potential α‑amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities. The molecular docking analyses of compounds 1 and 8 with the potent inhibition towards the target enzymes were also performed.
Keywords: Viburnum chinshanense; chemical constituents; α-glucosidase; α‑amylase.
