Abstract

Radiolytic transformation of the isoflavonoid rotenone (1) with γ-irradiation afforded two new degraded products, rotenoisins A (2) and (3). The structures of the two new rotenone derivatives were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic methods. The new products 2 and 3 exhibited significantly enhanced inhibitory activities against pancreatic lipase and adipocyte differentiation in 3T3-L1 cells when compared to parent rotenone.
