title: Bioactive sucrose esters from Bidens parviflora.
abstract: An investigation on Bidens parviflora led to the isolation of three sucrose esters and a substituted truxillate. Their structures were elucidated as (6-O-(E)-p-coumaroyl)-beta-D-fructofuranosyl-(2-->1)-alpha-D-glucopyranoside, (6-O-(E)-p-coumaroyl)-beta-D-fructofuranosyl-(2-->1)-(6-O-(E)-p-coumaroyl)-alpha-D-glucopyranoside II, 6,6'-sucrose ester of (1alpha,2alpha,3beta,4beta)-3,4-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1,2-cyclobutanedicarboxylic acid, dimethyl ester of (1alpha,2alpha,3alpha,4alpha)-2,4-bis(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-1,3-cyclobutanedicarboxylic acid on the basis of spectral and chemical evidence. These compounds were subjected to the following bioassays: the histamine release inhibition of rat mast cells induced by antigen-antibody reaction and the inhibitory activity of PGE(2) production by macrophages.
