Six undescribed C-geranylated flavonoids, including five C-geranylflavanones named as paucatalinones F - J, one C-geranylflavonol named as paucatalinone K, along with seven known geranylated flavanones, were isolated from the fruit peel of Paulownia catalpifolia T. Gong ex D.Y. Hong. Their structures were elucidated distinctly according to their UV, IR, MS, NMR, and CD data. Among them, two compounds were substituted with unusual modified geranyl groups, namely paucatalinone F with an oxygenated cyclogeranyl substituent and paucatalinone H with a terminal pyranoid geranyl substituent. Furthermore, the protective effects on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) injury induced by H2O2 were evaluated, and paucatalinone F showed the most potential activity. The bioactive results suggested that the geranyl substituent may be an important factor for restraining oxidative HUVECs damage and Paulownia C-geranylated flavonoids might have the potential for preventing cardiovascular complications.
