Glucopyranosyloxybenzyl succinates and their biological activities.

ABSTRACT

Over the past decades, great efforts have been made to explore the glucopyranosyloxybenzyl succinates from Orchidaceae. At the same time, some of those compounds with new structures have led to new findings of their biological functions. The structures, classifications, distributions and bioactivities of glucopyranosyloxybenzyl succinates have been summarized in this review.
