Abstract

One new amine 2-dimethyl-Penidilamine (1), together with seventeen known compounds (2-18) were isolated from the 95% ethanol extract of Urtica thunbergiana Siebold & Zucc. Their structures were characterised by extensive spectroscopic analysis including NMR, mass spectra and single X-ray crystallography. Among them, compound 1 is a new compound, and compounds 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17 and 18 were isolated from Urtica thunbergiana Siebold & Zucc for the first time. Among them, compound 1, 10, 15, 17 and 18 exhibited significant α-glucosidase inhibitory activity with an IC50 value of 65.12 μM, 7.42 μM, 26.24 μM, 71.31 μM and 72.55 μM, respectively. Our study provided the scientific report for the medicinal value of Urtica thunbergiana Siebold & Zucc.
