Chemical Constituents of Micromelum minutum. Isolation and Structural Elucidation of New Coumarins.

Chemical constituents of Micromelum minutum. Isolation and structural elucidation of new coumarins.

The chemical constituents of an acetone extract of the stems of Micromelum minutum Wight et Arn (Rutaceae), collected at Nakorn-Rachasima province in Thailand, were studied. Six new coumarins, named micromarin-A (1), -B (2), -C (3), -F (4), -G (5), and -H (6), were isolated along with six known coumarins, and their structures were elucidated by chemical and spectroscopic methods.

Chemical constituents of Avicennia alba. Isolation and structural elucidation of new naphthoquinones and their analogues.

Three new naphthoquinones and their analogues, named avicequinone-A (1), -B (2), -C (3), and avicenol-A (4), -B (5), -C (6), respectively, were isolated from the stem bark of Avicennia alba (Avicenniaceae) collected in Singapore, and their structures were elucidated by means of spectral methods. Gillan and co-workers have proposed that the structures of the new phytoalexins isolated from Avicen...

ISOLATION AND STRUCTURAL ELUCIDATION OF THE FIRST KNOWN C-HOMOPROTOBERBERINE

A novel C-homoprotoberberine alkaloid, Hediamine (2), has been isolated from the roots of Berberis actinucantha (Berberidaceae). Conclusive proof for the structure of hediamine was obtained by its comparison with the isomeric lactam (4), by chemical transformation, and by means of spectroscopic techniques (UV, IR, MS, NMR).

Rapid identification of coumarins from Micromelum falcatum by UPLC-HRMS/MS and targeted isolation of three new derivatives.

Micromelum falcatum, a medicinal plant of the Rutaceae family, has been used in the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) mainly against colds and rheumatoid arthritis. Despite its traditional use the association of its constituents with possible anti-inflammatory activity has not been explored. During this study, a rapid UPLC-ESI(+)-HRMS method was developed for the profiling of M. falcatum leave...
