RESUMO: "Espécies de Bromeliaceae brasileiras: isolamento de derivados arilpropanoídicos e potencial antiradicalar". Um total de vinte extratos de seis espécies de Bromeliaceae brasileiras foram avaliadas quanto a atividade antioxidante, usando-se o método colorimétrico de redução do radical DPPH. De maneira geral, os extratos polares dos rizomas das espécies de Bromeliaceae testadas revelaram melhor perfil antioxidante do que os extratos das folhas e dos frutos das mesmas espécies. Os melhores resultados foram encontrados para os rizomas de Vriesea procera (Mart. ex Schult.f.) Wittm. e Neoregelia cruenta (Graham) L.B. Sm. O extrato bruto metanólico das folhas de Ananas bracteatus (Lindl.) Schult. & Schult. f. apresentou uma atividade significativa, em relação aos extratos de folhas testados, e o processo de purificação desse extrato resultou na identificação de quatro metabólitos: ferulato de 2-glicerila, p-cumarato de 2-glicerila, 5,7,4'-triidroxi-3,3',5'-trimetoxiflavona e 3-O-β-D-glicopiranosil sitosterol.Unitermos: Bromeliaceae, antioxidante, ferulato de 2-glicerila, p-cumarato de 2-glicerila, 5,7,4'-triidroxi-3,3',5'-trimetoxiflavona. ABSTRACT:A total of twenty different extracts from six Brazilian Bromeliaceae species was screened for antioxidant activity by assessment of their capacity to scavenge the DPPH radical. In a general way, the polar rhizome extracts from Bromeliaceae representatives showed better antioxidant results than the extracts from leaves and fruits of the same species. The best results were found for the rhizome extracts of Vriesea procera (Mart. ex Schult.f.) Wittm. and Neoregelia cruenta (Graham) L.B. Sm. Crude methanol extract of Ananas bracteatus (Lindl.) Schult. & Schult. f. leaf had a significant antiradical activity among the leaves extracts assessed its purification afforded four metabolites: 2-O-feruloyl glyceride, 2-O-p-coumaroyl glyceride, 5,7,4'-trihydroxy-3,3',5'-trimethoxyflavone and 3-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl sitosterol.
