A further investigation of the leaves and stems of Saprosma scortechinii afforded 13 compounds, of which 10 are new compounds. These were elucidated as the bis-iridoid glucosides, saprosmosides G (1) and H (2), the iridoid glucoside, 6-O-epi-acetylscandoside (3), and the anthraquinones, 1-methoxy-3-hydroxy-2-carbomethoxy-9,10-anthraquinone (4), 1-methoxy-3-hydroxy-2-carbomethoxy-9,10-anthraquin...

The aqueous electrochemistry of a number of anthraquinone derivatives was studied by using cyclic voltammetry at the surface of carbon paste electrode (CPE). From measurements of the half-wave potential as a function of pH, the potential - pH diagrams were constructed for each compound. The values of formal potentials and the pK'a of some different redox and acid-base couples inv...

Anthraquinone (AQ) derivatives with relatively high reduction potentials have been synthesized to afford good candidates for electron transfer studies in DNA. Electron withdrawing groups on the anthraquinone ring gave derivatives with less negative reduction potentials. The anthraquinone imide (AQI) derivatives had reduction potentials less negative than AQ derivatives. The AQI ring system was ...
