ABSTRACT: Nine compounds including a new A-type proanthocyanidin trimer,
21
epicatechin-(2β→O→7,4β→8)-[catechin-(6→4β)]-epicatechin (8), and a known
22
trimer,
23
reported for peanut skin for the first time, were isolated and purified. Their structures
24
were determined by spectroscopic methods and by degradation reactions with
25
L-cysteine in acidic conditions. The DPPH radical scavenging activity and the
26
inhibitory activity on maltase and sucrase of the isolated compounds were
27
investigated. All compounds showed strong DPPH scavenging activities (EC50 < 20
28
µg/ml). Compound 8 showed the strongest inhibitory activity on maltase with an
29
IC50 value of 0.088 mg/ml, while compound 9 exhibited the strongest inhibition on
30
sucrase with an IC50 value of 0.091 mg/ml.

INTRODUCTION Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L. Fabaceae), the fourth oleaginous plant in the world, is
38
known to be one of the most important economical crop owing to its wide distribution,
39
nutritional characteristics and its great application in the food industry for centuries.
40
China, being the largest producer and exporter of peanut, has a production of
41
14,385,000 tons every year and almost 60% of the peanut is consumed as feedstock
42
for oil, which is one of the main vegetal oils in Chinese daily life. However, over the
43
years, the skin of peanut is generally neglected and considered as useless byproduct
44
and, for the yearly generated peanut skin, only small part of it is used in traditional
45
Chinese medicine (TCM) to treat illness such as chronic hemorrhage and
46
bronchitis,etc.1 Early investigations have shown that the most important chemical
47
constituents of peanut skin are proanthocyanidins, particularly the A-type, in which
48
the subunits are connected by a 4→8 or 4→6 carbon bond and a 2→O→7 ether
49
bond.2-3
50
Proanthocyanidins in general have shown notable potentials of health benefits, e.g.,
51
antioxidant4-5 and insulin action potentiation6 activities. Moreover, consumption of
52
plant extract containing A-type proanthocyanidins has been shown to increase sugar
53
tolerance in type II diabetes patients.7 Disaccharidase (or α-glucosidase) inhibitors
54
could control postprandial hyperglycemia by delaying the absorption of intestinal
55
carbohydrates as does the prototype clinically used anti-diabetic α-glucosidase
56
inhibitor drug, acarbose.8
57
In our further systematic search for proanthocyanidins, 9 compounds were isolated
3

58
from the water-soluble fraction of peanut skin, including a novel trimer (compound 8)
59
and another trimer (compound 9) which is being reported from peanut skin for the
60
first time. Bioassays were carried out to test the antioxidant and intestinal
61
disaccharidase inhibitory activities of the 9 compounds from peanut skin. This paper
62
describes the isolation, structure elucidation, antioxidant activity and intestinal
63
disaccharidase inhibitory activity of these proanthocyanidins to provide scientifically
64
valuable information for better utilization of peanut skin.
65
MATERIALS AND METHODS
66
Materials and Apparatus. Solvents used for the extraction and isolation were of
67
analytical grade. L-Cysteine hydrochloride was pursed from Sigm-Aldrich
68
Corporation (St. Louis, MO, USA). High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)
69
grade solvents used for UPLC were purchased from Fisher scientific company (New
70
Jersey, USA). The sources of other materials are: octadecylsilane (ODS, 38-63µm,
71
wako Pure Chemcial Industries, td., Osaka, Japan), Sephadex LH-20 (GE Healthcare
72
Bio-Sciences AB, Uppsala, Sweden) and high porous polymer from Mitsubishi
73
Chemical Corporation (MCI CHP 20, Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation, Tokyo,
74
Japan). TLC was performed on silica gel plates (GF254, 0.2mm, Rushan Taiyang
75
Desiccant co., Itd, China). NMR spectra were obtained from a Bruker Avance III 500
76
spectrometer with tetramethylsilane as internal standard. UPLC-DAD-ESI-MS
77
experiments were carried out on an Agilent 1290 infinity UPLC-DAD system [Agilent
78
Technologies Singapore (International) Pte. Ltd., Singapore] with an auto-sampler and
79
a photo-diode array detector (DAD) coupled with an Agilent 6340 triple Quad MS.

80
Fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry (FAB-MS) were measured with a Xevo
81
G2 Q-TOF mass spectrometer (Waters). Circular dichroism (CD) was recorded with
82
JASCO-J-18 spectro-polarimeter (Waters). UV and IR. Spectra were taken using a
83
Shimadzu UV 240 spectrophotometer and a Shimadzu IR spectrophotometer,
84
respectively.
85
Plant Materials. Peanut skin used in this research was purchased from Weikang
86
drug store, Huhhot, Inner Mongolia, China and identified by the authors to be the seed
87
skin of Arachis hypogaea L. Fabaceae.
88
Extraction and Purification. Peanut skin (2kg) was soaked with 70% acetone
89
(32L) for 24h, and extracted with ultrasonication for 30 minutes. After filtration, the
90
residue was extracted once again by repeating the above procedure. The solvent was
91
evaporated under reduced pressure and the ensuing extract (276 g) fractionated by
92
chromatography over Sephadex LH-20 with ethanol (7500 ml) to give 8 fractions
93
(E1-E8). TLC and LC-MS analysis revealed that E2 contained proanthocyanidin
94
monomers, while E3 and E5 contained dimeric and trimeric proanthocyanidins
95
respectively. E2 was subjected to further chromatography on ODS, eluted with a
96
0-100% methanol/water gradient to give compounds 1 (122 mg) and 2 (63 mg).
97
Similarly E3 (27 g) was subjected to further chromatography on ODS, eluted with a
98
0-100% methanol/water gradient. The 20%-30% gradient fraction contained
99
polyphenols as indicated by TLC, and was further purified by repeated
100
chromatography on MCI gel (CHP20/P120) and Sephadex LH-20 with
101
methanol/water gradients to afford compounds 3-6. Compound 3 (780 mg) was
5

102
recrystallized from water as colorless needles, while 4 (56 mg), 5 (25 mg) and 6 (68
103
mg) were obtained as amorphous powders. Furthermore, E5 (20 g) was purified in the
104
same way as described for E3 to obtain compounds 7 (145 mg), 8 (54 mg) and 9 (72
105
mg) as amorphous powders.
106
Compound 1-2: amorphous powder, MS (ESI) m/z 289 ([M-H]-, 100). Compound
107
3-6: colorless needles (3) or amorphous powder (4-6), MS (ESI) m/z 575 ([M-H]-,
108
100), NMR see supporting material. Compound 7-9: amorphous powder, MS (ESI)
109
m/z 863 ([M-H]-, 100), NMR see supporting material.
110
Degradation of Proanthocyanidin Trimers. L-cysteine-induced degradations
111
of the trimeric proanthocyanidins were carried out according to the reported
112
methods9,10 with modification. The trimer and cysteine•HCl (1:2) were dissolved in
113
methanol in a centrifuge tube. The tube was tightly sealed and heated at 65 ºC for 24 h.
114
The reaction mixture was filtered though a 0.22 µm microfilter and analyzed by
115
UPLC-DAD-EIS-MS in comparison with standard 3 (procyanidins A1), and standards
116
catechin-cystein and epicatechin-cystein which were recently prepared in our earlier
117
work.11
118
DPPH Radical Scavenging Assay. We examined the DPPH radical scavenging
119
activity with the method described by Ma et al.12 The antioxidant activities were
120
examined at four different concentration (2.5, 5, 10 and 20 µg/ml) in 96-well plates.
121
10 µl of a compound solution (in DMSO) and 190 µl of DPPH solution
122
(1,1-diphenyl-2- picrylhydrazyl radical in ethanol, 0.1 mM) were added to each well.
123
For the color control, 10 µl of compound solution and 190 µl of ethanol were mixed in
124
each well. In the control wells, 10 µL DMSO and 190 µL DPPH were added. After 20
125
min at room temperature in the dark, the absorbance (A) was measured at 520 nm, and
6

126
the activity was calculated as follow:
127
Effect %=100×[Acontrol - (Acompound -Acolor)] /Acontrol
128
IC50, the concentration of a sample that scavenged 50% of DPPH radical was obtained
129
from a curve of effect % versus sample concentration.
130
Determination of Inhibitory Activity against Maltase and Sucrase. To
131
determine the maltase and sucrase inhibitory activities of samples, we prepared the
132
stocking intestinal disaccharidases as reported before.11 The assay was carried out as
133
following: 3 µl of sample (dissolved by DMSO), 7µl of disaccharidase [the stocking
134
enzyme was diluted 10 times by phosphate buffer (pH 7)] and 20 µl maltose solution
135
(2 mg/ml) were added in each well of a 96-well plate to test the inhibition activity on
136
maltase. 3 µl DMSO was added instead of samples in the control wells. After 20
137
minutes of incubation at 37 ºC, 10 µl of DMSO and the glucose detecting reagents of
138
an assay kit from Nanjing Jiancheng Bio Company (Nan Jing, China) were added and
139
the absorbances (A) were measured at 520 nm with a plate reader. The activity was
140
calculated as follows:
141
Inhibition %=100 × [(Acontrol-Asample)] ⁄Acontrol
142
The inhibition activity on sucrase was tested in the same procedure as above,
143
except that 20 µl of sucrose instead of maltose was used as the substrate and the
144
concentration of the working enzyme solution was trice of that for the maltase assay.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
146
Proanthocyanidins in Peanut Skin. Peanut skin was extracted with 70 % (v/v)
147
acetone and the extract was fractionated with Sephadex LH-20 column
148
chromatogaphy. The fraction obtained from 95% ethanol eluted part was then
149
subjected to repeated chromatography on ODS and MCI eluted with aqueous

150
methanol. Compounds 1-9 were obtained and their structures were determined by
151
interpretation of their spectral data and by L-cysteine-induced degradations (Figure 1).
152
Compounds 1 and 2 were identified as catechin and epicatechin by comparison
153
with authentic standards in UPLC-DAD-ESI-MS. Compounds 3~6 were identified as
154
procyanidins A1, A2, epicatechin-(2β→O→7,4β→8)-ent-epicatechin, and
155
epicatechin-(2β→O→7,4β→6)-catechin by comparison of their spectral data with
156
those reported in literature.3
157
Structural Elucidation of Compound 7. Compound 7 [circular dichroism (CD):
158
∆ε272.6 -3.93, ∆ε231 +21.57] was obtained as a white amorphous powderIt showed a
159
molecular formula of C45H36O18 from the negative FAB-MS (m/z [M-1]- 863.1823,
160
which revealed that 7 was a trimeric proanthocyanidin. Degradation of 7 (Scheme 1)
161
produced catechin and another compound with the poseudo-molecular weight of 694
162
in negative ESIMS, suggesting it is composed by an A-type procyanidins and a
163
catechin. By comparison of its 1H and 13C NMR spectral data with those preciously
164
reported, 10-11 compound 7 was confirmed as cinnamtannin D-1.14
165
Structural Elucidation of Compound 8. Compound 8 [UV (MeOH) λmax ( log
166
ε): 280 (4.13) nm; IR (ν, KBr, cm-1): 3350, 1610, 1520, 1450, 1290, 1150, 1100;
167
CD:∆ε273.8 -2.58, ∆ε239.4 +16.07] was obtained as a white amorphous powder. It
168
showed a molecular formula of C45H36O18 from the negative HRFAB-MS (m/z
169
[M-1]- 863.1823), which revealed that 8 was a trimeric proanthocyanidin. The
170
presence of three flavanyl units was also indicated by 13C resonances at δ 100.88
171
(C-2), 67.49 (C-3), 29.46 (C-4), 84.21 (C-2′), 68.02 (C-3′), 28.58 (C-4′), 77.21

172
(C-2″), 67.49 (C-3″), 37.06 (C-4″) (Table 1), arising from the heterocyclic rings
173
(rings C, I and F). The existence of an A-type proanthocyanidin unit was supported
174
by the downfielded C-2 signal at δ 100.88 (Table 1) and an isolated AB coupling
175
system at δ 4.20 (br.s, H-3) and 4.35 (br.s, H-4) (C-ring) in 1H NMR spectrum. The
176
two flavan-3-ol units of the A-type entity in 8 were deduced to be linked through C4
177
(C ring) and C-8′ (D ring) based on the long-range correlations of H-4 (C-ring) at δ
178
4.35 with C-7′ at δ 150.1, C-8′ at δ 107.33, and C-9′ at δ 154.44 in the Heteronuclear
179
multiple-bond correlation (HMBC) spectrum. The long-range correlations of H-4″
180
(I-ring) at δ 4.63 with C-5′ at δ 149.29 , C-6′ at δ 120.08, and C-7′ at δ 150.1 in the
181
HMBC indicated the C-4″→C-6′ linkage (Figure 2). The C-4″→C-6′ linkage was
182
further confirmed by its complex NMR spectra arisen from conformational isomers
183
due to the steric hindrance for the free rotation of the epicatechin unit.
184
The terminal flavanol unit was determined to be 2,3-cis (I ring) from the singlet
185
at δ 5.33 (1H, s, H-2″) and the corresponding carbon at δ 77.21(C-2″), 4 while the
186
middle unit (the doubly-substituted terminal unit ) was deduced to have a 2,3-trans
187
configuration (F ring) from the proton signal at δ 4.79 (1H, d, J=6.5, H-2′) and the
188
corresponding carbon at δ 84.21 (C-2′) in 13C NMR.4
189
Treatment of 8 with cysteine•HCl in methanol (Scheme 2) yielded compound 3,
190
which was identified to be procyanidin A1 by direct comparison of its 1H and 13C
191
NMR spectral data with those preciously reported.4 The cystein conjugate derived
192
from the upper flavan-3-ol unit in the degradation of 8, was identified as
193
epicatechin-cystein by direct comparison by UHPLC-MS with a standard compound
9

Page 10 of 30
which had been prepared and reported in our laboratory recently11 (Figure 3). Of the three trimeric proanthocyanidins (7-9) with the same molecular weight (864),
196
the 1HNMR spectrum of 8 was observed to be relatively complicated compared to
197
those of 7 and 9. This relative complication is alludable to the presence of conformers
198
in 8, due to hindered free rotation across its 4″→6′ linkage, which the structures of 7
199
and 9 conspicuously lack.
200
The diagnostic high amplitude positive cotton effect at 239 nm wavelength of the
201
CD spectrum of 8 informed the β-orientation assignment of the interflavonoid
202
bonds.15 Consequently, the structure of 8 was determined to be epicatechin-
203
(2β→O→7,4β→8)-[catechin-(6→4β)]-epicatechin. This is a branched A-type
204
proanthocyanidin with C4-C6, C4-C8 linkages to the same A ring of a flavanyl unit.
205
Structural Elucidation of Compound 9. Compound 9 (CD: ∆ε277.8 -4.67, ∆ε240
206
+5.39, ∆ε228.2 +2.86) was obtained as a white amorphous powder. It showed a
207
molecular formula of C45H36O18 from the negative FAB-MS (m/z [M-1]- 863.1823,
208
which revealed that 9 was a trimeric proanthocyanidin. Treatment of 9 with
209
cysteine•HCl in methanol yielded procyanidin A1 and epicatechin-cystein (Scheme 3,
210
Figure 3), the same results as for the degradation of compound 8. The result indicated
211
that compound 9 also composed of proanthocynidin A1 and epicatechin with
212
epicatechin being its upper flavan-3-ol unit. It was thus deduced that compounds 8
213
and 9 possess different linking positions between procyanidin A1 and epicatechin. The
214
epicatechin was determined to be linked through C4→C8 with proanthocynidin A1,
215
by direct comparison of the 1H and 13C NMR spectral data of 9 with references.16-17
10
ACS Paragon Plus Environment
Page 11 of 30
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
216
The high amplitude positive Cotton effect at a wavelength of 240 nm in the CD
217
spectrum of 9 confirmed its β-orientated interflavonoid bond. Compound 9 was thus
218
identified as epicatechin-(4β→8)-epicatechin-(2β→O→7,4β→8)-catechin, which is
219
reported from peanut skin for the first time.
220
Antioxidant activity. As shown in Table 2, all the isolated compounds, 1−9
221
demonstrated strong antioxidant activities. They scavenged 50% of the DPPH radical
222
at a concentration less than or near to10 µg/ml. The dimeric and trimeric
223
proanthocyanidins showed radical scavenging activity with the potencies similar to
224
those of the monomers, catechin and epicatechin, which are well known potent
225
anti-oxidants.
226
Inhibitory Activity Against Maltase and Sucrase. As shown in Table 3, five
227
compounds showed maltase inhibitory activity (>50% inhibition), and four
228
compounds showed sucrase inhibitory activity at concentrations of 1 mg/ml.
229
Compound 8, epicatechin-(2β→O→7,4β→8)-[catechin-(6→4β)]-epicatechin, showed
230
the strongest inhibition against maltase, with an IC50 value of 0.088 mg/ml. The
231
lowest IC50 value (0.091 mg/ml) observed in the sucrase inhibition experiment was
232
exhibited by 9, epicatechin-(4β→8)-epicatechin-(2β→O→7,4β→8)-catechin, making
233
it the strongest sucrase inhibitor of all the samples. It can be deduced from the results
234
that 8 and 9 have notable degrees of specificity for maltase and sucrase respectively.
235
As the component units of 8 and 9 are essentially the same, the variation in their
236
biological activities as by their observed differing enzyme specificities is alludable to
237
their different unit-connectivity, impacting chirality (though of same configuration) at
11
ACS Paragon Plus Environment
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
Page 12 of 30
238
different positions. All the 3 trimeric proanthocyanidins showed inhibitory activities
239
on maltase and sucrase. Their inhibitory activities were greater than those of their
240
component dimeric proanthocyanidins. Further investigations are required to elucidate
241
the detail structure-activity relationships of A-type proanthocyanidins on intestinal
242
disaccharidases.
243
Degradation of the trimeric proanthocyanidins was carried out with a mild reagent,
244
L-cysteine, which also is relatively safe compared to the conventionally used thiolytic
245
degradation reagent, benzyl mercaptan with a strong irritating smell. LC-MS analysis
246
of the products of L-cysteine-induced degradation clearly indicated the component
247
units and their linking order in the structures of pranthocyanidin polymers. Some
248
L-cysteine conjugates of catechin/epicatechin and low-molecular-weight B-type
249
proanthocyanidins have been reported to have antioxidant,10 glucosidase inhibitory,11
250
and neuroprotective activities.18 However, no literature could be found for any A-type
251
proanthocyanidin-cysteine conjugate. In the present research, we detected an A-type
252
proanthocyanidin-cysteine conjugate for the first time from the degradation product of
253
cinnamtannin D-1 (7). Preparation, purification and bioactivity evaluation of novel
254
A-type proanthocyanidin-cysteine conjugates are planed to be carried out in our group
255
in the near future.
256
Proanthocyanidins are rich in hydrophobic aromatic rings and hydrophilic hydroxyl
257
groups, which could interact with biological molecules, especially proteins. It is
258
generally believed that the activity of proanthocyanidins becomes stronger as the
259
number of flavanol units increases. The result of our study confirmed that
12
ACS Paragon Plus Environment
Page 13 of 30
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
260
proanthocyanidins have strong antioxidant activities, which could provide protection
261
against oxidative stress and thereby prevent a variety of human diseases so
262
associated.19-21
263
In summary, we have isolated nine compounds, including one novel trimeric A-type
264
proanthocyanidin (8), and a known trimeric A-type proanthocyanidin (9) that was
265
reported for the first time for peanut skin. All these compounds showed antioxidant
266
activity and the 2 trimeric A-type proanthocyanidins, 8 and 9 showed considerable
267
inhibitory activities on the intestinal disaccharidases, maltase and sucrase.
