Abstract Increasing findings devote to searching for natural active compositions as additives to ameliorate health status. Anthocyanin, water‐soluble natural pigment, has been concerned due to its favorable antioxidant activity. In this study, we purified anthocyanin from Dioscorea alata L., identified its compounds, and evaluated its antioxidant properties. The results indicated that the purity of anthocyanin increased to 39.59 ± 1.56%, 60.18 ± 1.97%, and 81.08 ± 1.97% after purification via AB‐8 macroporous resin, Sep‐Pak C18 solid phase, and LH‐20 Sephadex stepwise. Ultra‐performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometer results indicated that paeoniflorin‐3,5‐O‐dihexoside, petunin‐3‐O‐feruloyl‐glucoside‐5‐O‐glucoside, cyanidin‐3‐O‐feruloyl glucoside‐5‐O‐glucoside, cyanidin‐3‐O‐sophoroside, and petunin‐3,5‐O‐dihexoside were the major compounds. The purified anthocyanin exhibited stronger antioxidant activity than the unpurified extract and ascorbic acid, whereas weaker than that of cyanidin‐3‐O‐glucoside in general, which was assessed using DPPH, ABTS, and Fe3+ reducing capacity methods. Moreover, the purified anthocyanin increased GSH‐Px, total antioxidant capacity, and superoxide dismutase activities and decreased malondialdehyde concentration on serum in mice after administering lipopolysaccharide for 24 h (p < .05). To summarize, the purified anthocyanin boasts more outstanding antioxidant properties than that of crude extracts. These results provide a reference with source of anthocyanin and it is conducive to use Dioscorea alata L. resources.
