From the whole plant of Ardisia japonica, four [1,4]benzoquinones were isolated by means of bioassay-directed fractionation of the EtOH extract. Apart from the two known compounds maesanin (1) and its congener 2, two new benzoquinones, i.e., 5-ethoxy-2-hydroxy-3-[(10Z)-pentadec-10-en-1-yl][1,4]benzoquinone (3) and 5-ethoxy-2-hydroxy-3-[(8Z)-tridec-8-en-1-yl][1,4]benzoquinone (4), were identified. All compounds showed significant in vitro bioactivities against the PTP1B enzyme, with IC50 values in the range of ca. 3-19 microM.
