Three new phenylacetamide glycosides from Dracocephalum tanguticum Maxim and their anti-hyperglycemic activity

Three new phenylacetamide glycosides (1–3) together with one known phenylacetamide glycoside (4) and two known flavonoid glycosides (5–6) were isolated from whole plants of Dracocephalum tanguticum. The structure of all compounds were elucidated based on spectroscopic data analysis and comparison with data reported in related literature. Compounds (1–3) were evaluated for their anti-hyperglycemic and anti-fungal (Candida albicans) activities, the results revealed that all of them showed moderate activity with 3T3-L1 adipocytes glucose consumption rate of 20.80 ± 1.47%, 21.48 ± 2.44%, and 21.57 ± 1.35%, respectively at the final concentration of 25 μM. However, none of them showed obvious Candida albicans inhibitory activity.
