A New Alkaloid from Bombycis Feculae and Its α-Glucosidase Inhibitory Activity

Objective To study the chemical constituents of Bombycis Feculae.Methods Chemical constituents were isolated by HPLC-ELSD.The structures of the isolated compounds were determined by spectral means.Results Two compounds were isolated and identified as 1-deoxynojirimycin(1)and(2R,3R,5R)-2-(hydroxymethyl) piperidine-3,5-diol,named as 1,3-dideoxygalatonojirimycin(2).Conclusion Compound 2 is a new alkaloid.The extract of Bombycis Feculae,compound 1 and compound 2 show inhibitory activities againstα-glucosidase.
