Abstract

A new 2H-pyran-2-one derivative, 4-hydroxy-6-(4-methoxyphenethyl)-2H-pyran-2-one (1), together with four known compounds, 5,6-dehydrokawain (2), dihydro-5,6-dehydrokawain (3), (E)-labda-8(17),12-diene-15,16-dial (4), and quercetin (5) were isolated from the rhizomes of Alpinia zerumbet. (E)-Labda-8(17),12-diene-15,16-dial (4) and quercetin (5) exhibited potent inhibition, with IC50 values of 3.18 1.13 and 1.17 0.13 µg/mL, respectively, against formyl-L-methionyl-L-leucyl-L-phenylalanine (fMLP)-induced superoxide anion (O2·-) generation.
