isolated five known iridoids glycosides (scrophuloside a, harpagoside b, 5-hydroxyloganin, 8-o-acetylharpagide and 6-o-methyl,1-glucopyranosyl catalpol ),one phenyl ethanoid glycoside (verbascoside) and a phenyl ethanol amine (2-(4-chlorobenzyl amino) ethanol ) compound from the methanolic extract of aerial parts of scrophularia oxysepala using by high performance liquid chromatography based on...

Cultivated blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum, Vaccinium angustifolium, Vaccinium darrowii, and Vaccinium virgatum) is an economically important fruit crop native to North America and a member of the Ericaceae family. Several species in the Ericaceae family including cranberry, lignonberry, bilberry, and neotropical blueberry species have been shown to produce iridoids, a class of pharmacologicall...

Three new minor iridoids were isolated from the roots of Scrophularia ningpoensis. They were elucidated as 8-Oferuloylharpagide, 8-O-(2-hydroxy-cinnamoyl)harpagide and 6-O-a-D-galactopyranosylharpagoside. # 1998 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

Snow hebes are the alpine cushion-forming plants of New Zealand Veronica, formerly classified as Chionohebe. The chemical compositions of Veronica pulvinaris and Veronica thomsonii were studied and 33 water-soluble compounds were isolated. The structures of 14 previously unknown esters of phenylethanoid glycosides were elucidated by spectroscopic analyses. Further, eight known phenylethanoids, ...

Three new iridoids, Gardenal-I (1), Gardenal-II (2) and Gardenal-III (3), together with nine known iridoid glycosides; geniposide (4), 6-β-hydroxy geniposide (5), 6-α-hydroxy geniposide (6), 6-α-methoxy geniposide (7), feretoside (8), genipin-1-β-gentiobioside (9), shanzhiside (10), lamalbidic acid (11) and picrocrocinic acid (12) were isolated from EtOH extract of G. gasminoides. The structure...

Two new iridoid glycosides, named williamsoside C (1) and williamsoside D (2) were isolated from the root barks of Sambucus williamsii Hance. Their structures were established on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analysis (1D, 2D NMR and HRESIMS) and chemical studies as α-D-glucopyranosyl (1→2)-β-D-fructofuranosyl (4→6)-β-morroniside (1) and 7β-O-ethyl morroniside-(6'-O-7'')-β-morroniside (2...

Two new iridoids, 10-O-benzoylglobularigenin (1) and dumuloside (2) were isolated from the aerial parts of Globularia dumulosa together with seven known iridoid glucosides, davisioside (3), aucubin (4), melampyroside (5), catalpol (6), 10-O-benzoylcatalpol (7), alpinoside (8) and deacetylalpinoside (9). Three phenylethanoid glycosides, verbascoside, decaffeoyl-verbascoside, leucosceptoside A an...

Background: Lantana montevidensis (L. montevidensis) is native to Brazil, the tea and infusions of the dried leaves have been used in folk medicine. Previous study of L. montevidensis leaves has resulted in the isolation of ten anti-proliferative fl avones. Also, the essential oil of the Brazilian L. montevidensis leaves was investigated for its chemical composition and antimicrobial activity. ...

Plants of the genus Swertia (Gentianaceae) have been used in traditional medicine for many years. These herbs taste extremely bitter and have been mainly used for the treatment of hepatic, choleric and inflammatory diseases such as hepatitis, cholecystitis, pneumonia, osteomyelitis, dysentery, scabies, spasm, pain and neurastenia. In this genus, many components such as iridoids, xanthones, flav...
