The ethyl acetate fraction of the 95% ethanol extract from black mulberry branches was isolated and purified by comprehensive application of chromatographic techniques, including normal-phase silica gel column chromatography, Sephadex LH-20 gel column chromatography, and semi-preparative high-performance liquid chromatography (semi-prep HPLC). Fourteen compounds were obtained, and their structures were identified using modern spectroscopic techniques (UV, IR, MS, NMR). These compounds were identified as nigrasin M (1), nigrasin N (2), sanggenol F (3), sanggenon A (4), nigrasin K (5), nigrasin H (6), petalopurpurenol (7), solophenol D (8), nigragenon A (9), nigragenon I (10), nigragenon J (11), notabilisin A (12), notabilisin C (13), and licoflavone C (14). Among them, compounds 1 and 2 are new flavonoids, while compounds 13 and 14 were isolated from Morus nigra branches for the first time. To evaluate the hypoglycemic potential of compounds 1-13, a glucose uptake assay was performed using an L6 cell model. The results showed that compounds 6, 9, 11, and 12 significantly enhanced glucose uptake in L6 cells, suggesting their potential hypoglycemic activity.
