Ardisiphenol A is a novel bergenin derivative isolated from fruits of Ardisia colorata and was shown to exhibit antioxidant properties.

ChEBI: Ardisiphenol A is an acetate ester obtained from the formal condensation of acetic acid with the hydroxy group at position 1 of 6-pentadecylbenzene-1,2,4-triol. Isolated from the dried fruits of Ardisia colorata, it exhibits scavenging activity towards DPPH radicals and cytotoxicity against murine breast cancer cell line, FM3A. It has a role as a metabolite, an antineoplastic agent and a radical scavenger. It is a member of resorcinols and an acetate ester. It is functionally related to a 6-pentadecylbenzene-1,2,4-triol.
