title: L-O-Caffeoylhomoserine from Matteuccia struthiopteris.
abstract: A caffeic acid derivative was isolated from Matteuccia struthiopteris (ostrich fern) as a major radical scavenger. The compound consisted of caffeic acid and L-homoserine. NMR and MS analysis revealed the structure as L-O-caffeoylhomoserine.
