title: Constituents of a fern, Davallia mariesii Moore. II. Identification and 1H- and 13C-nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of procyanidin B-5, epicatechin-(4 beta----8)-epicatechin-(4 beta----6)-epicatechin, and epicatechin-(4 beta----6)-epicatechin-(4 beta----8)-epicatechin-(4 beta----6)-epicatechin.
abstract: Procyanidin B-5 (1), epicatechin-(4 beta----8)-epicatechin-(4 beta----6)-epicatechin (2), and epicatechin-(4 beta----6)-epicatechin-(4 beta----8)-epicatechin-(4 beta----6)-epicatechin (3), which showed an inhibitory effect toward protein kinase C, were isolated from the rhizomes of Davallia mariesii Moore. Detailed analyses of their 1H- and 13C-nuclear magnetic resonance spectra were carried out by the use of two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance techniques.
