Abstract

An unusual new cyclic peptide with a pyrrolidine-2,5-dione unit, gypsophin (1), was isolated from Gypsophila oldhamiana. Its structure was elucidated by the spectroscopic evidences. The stereochemistry was determined by application of the Marfey’s method and the single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Compound 1 exhibited inhibitory activity against α-glucosidase with IC50 of 305 μM.

Graphical abstractThe elucidation and the α-glucosidase inhibitory activity of a new cyclic peptide are reported.Figure optionsDownload full-size imageDownload as PowerPoint slide
