Abstract
A new complex tannin, cowaniin (1) was isolated from the leaves and stems of Cowania mexicana (Rosaceae), and its structure was characterized as novel C-glucosidic tannin dimer linked through (+)-catechin on the basis of spectral and chemical evidence. The inhibitory effect on activation of the Epstein-Barr virus early antigen was assessed for cowaniin. Six known polyphenols and related compounds, including a nitrile glucoside, purshianin, were also characterized.
