Antioxidant‐guided separation of Carallia brachiata bark led to a new A‐type trimeric proanthocyanidin named carallidin (1), along with mahuannin A (2) and p ‐hydroxy benzoic acid (3). The structure of 1 was fully characterized by interpretation of spectroscopic data and chemical means. Compounds 1 and 2 exhibited radical scavenging against DPPH (IC 50 102 and 182 µ m ) and superoxide radical (IC 50 1.47 and 9.74 µ m ). In addition, 1 and 2 also inhibited xanthine oxidase with IC 50 values of 12.9 and 16.0 µ m . Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
