New Isoprenylated Phenolic Compounds from Morus laevigata

Abstract Two new isoprenylated flavonoids, laevigasins A and B ( 1 and 2 , resp.), and one new isoprenylated 2‐arylbenzofuran, leavigasin C ( 3 ), together with eight known compounds, 4 – 11 , were isolated from the twigs of Morus laevigata . Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods. Laevigasin A ( 1 ) showed significant inhibitory effect on α ‐glucosidase in vitro. Notabilisin E ( 5 ), taxifolin ( 10 ), and hultenin ( 11 ) inhibited PTP1B phosphatase activity in vitro.
