Abstract

Morin is a flavonol having 2',4'-dihydroxy group on B-ring identified especially in Moraceae plants. While morin is widely known, its glycosides are relatively rare. To the best of our knowledge, morin-3-O-glucoside (1) was first reported in 2008. However, the reported chemical shift values of 1 were unsatisfactory with those of the aglycone, morin, which is rather similar to quercetin-3-O-glucoside (2). Therefore, we prepared morin-3-O-glucoside (1) by microbial transformation of morin with Cunninghamella sp., and the NMR assignment was reinvestigated. The microbial culture also produced another compound (3). The NMR and MS analyses of 3 revealed it as a novel compound, morin-2'-O-glucoside (3).In this study, the revision of the NMR assignment of morin-3-O-glucoside (1), and the preparation and structural elucidation of a novel compound, morin-2'-O-glucoside (3), were described.
