Abstract
Two new indole derivatives were isolated as free radical scavengers fr om the MeOH extract of Agrocybe cylindracea. The structures of these c ompounds were determined to be 6-hydroxy-1H-indole-3-carboxaldehyde (1 ) and 6-hydroxy-1H-indole-3-acetamide (2) on the basis of spectroscopi c studies. Compounds 1 and 2 inhibited lipid peroxidation in rat liver microsomes, with IC50 values of 4.1 and 3.9 mu g/mL, respectively.
