Bioassay-directed chromatographic fractionation of an ethyl acetate extract from leaves of sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) afforded six quinic acid derivatives: 3,5-epi-dicaffeoylquinic acid (1), 3,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid (2), methyl 3,5-O-dicaffeoylquinate (3), methyl 3,4-dicaffeoylquinate (4), methyl 4,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid (5),4,5-dicaffeoylquinate (6), and two phenolic compounds: caffeic acid (7) and caffeic acid methyl ester (8) together with three flavonoids: quercetin 3-O-${eta}$-D-glucopyranoside (9), quercetin 3-O-${eta}$-D-glucopyranoside, isoquercitrin (10) and kaempferol 3-O-${eta}$-D-glucopyranoside (11). The structures of these compounds were elucidated by the aid of spectroscopic methods. These compounds were assessed for antioxidant activities using three different cell-free bioassay systems. All isolates except 11 showed potent DPPH and superoxide anion radicals scavenging, and lipid peroxidation inhibitory activities. 3,5-epi-DCQA (1) and methyl quinates (3-5) along with flavonoide 9 were isolated for the first time from this plant.
