title: Oligomers of resveratrol and ferulic acid prepared by peroxidase-catalyzed oxidation and their protective effects on cardiac injury.
abstract: Peroxidase extracted from Momordica charantia was used for the oligomerization of trans-resveratrol and ferulic acid on a preparative scale. One new heterocoupling oligomer, trans-3 E-3-[(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)methylene]-4-(3,5-dihydroxyphenyl)-5-(4-hydroxyphenyl)tetrahydro-2-franone (6), and six resveratrol dimers, leachianol G (1), restrytisol B (2), parthenostilbenins A (3) and B (5), 7- O-acetylated leachianol G (4), and resveratrol trans-dehydrodimer (8), and one known ferulic acid dehydrodimer, (3alpha,3aalpha,6alpha,6aalpha)tetrahydro-3,6-bis(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-1 H,4 H-furo[3,4-c]furan-1,4-dione (7) were obtained. Bioactive experiments showed that compounds 6- 8 have strong free radical scavenging effects and also have protective effects on doxorubicin-induced cardiac cell injury when tested in vitro.
