The antioxidant properties of different extracts of Lagenaria siceraria (bottle gourd) fruit were evaluated. In the process, a new phenolic glycoside (E)-4-hydroxymethyl-phenyl-6-O-caffeoyl-β-d-glucopyranoside (1) was isolated and identified together with 1-(2-hydroxy-4-hydroxymethyl)-phenyl-6-O-caffeoyl-β-d-gluco-pyranoside (2), protocatechuic acid (3), gallic acid (4), caffeic acid (5) and 3,4-dimethoxy cinnamic acid (6). Their structures were elucidated by extensive NMR experiments including (1)H-(1)H (COSY) and (1)H-(13)C (HMQC and HMBC) spectroscopy and chemical evidences. The antioxidant potential of the compound 1 and 2 was tested in different in vitro assay systems such as free radical scavenging assay, 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazole-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) reduction assay, superoxide scavenging activity, reducing power assay and linoleic acid peroxidation assay.
