Bioactive Constituents from the Aerial Parts of Lippia triphylla.

Five new compounds, lippianosides A (1), B (2), C (3), D (4), and E (5), along with 26 (6-31) known ones were obtained from the 95% EtOH extract of Lippia triphylla (L. triphylla) aerial parts collected from Rwanda, Africa. Among the known compounds, 11 and 17-30 were isolated from the Lippia genus for the first time. In addition, 12, 13, and 16 were firstly obtained from this species. The structures of them were elucidated by chemical and spectroscopic methods. The antioxidant and triglyceride accumulation inhibition effects of the 31 compounds were examined in L6 cells and HepG2 cells, respectively.
