چکیده
OBJECTIVE The genus of Ferula belongs to the tribe Peucedaneae, subfamily of Apioideae and family of Umbelliferae with 133 species distributed throughout the Mediterranean area and central Asia, especially in the former USSR and neighboring countries such as Iran. The popular Persian name of the most of these species is "Koma". In this research we tried to isolate and elucidate the structure of new sesquiterpene in the root of Ferula latisecta (F. latisecta). MATERIALS AND METHODS Dried and powdered roots of F. latisecta were extracted with CH2Cl2 using a Soxhlet apparatus. The extract was concentrated in vacuo to give a red extract. The extract was subjected to column chromatography on silica gel. (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, DEPT, (1)H-(1)H COSY, HMBC, HSQC, and NOESY spectra were the methods we used to elucidate the structure of new sesquiterpene in this plant. RESULTS One new sesquieterpene coumarin, namely Latisectin and IUPAC name [1-(2-Hydroxy-4-methoxy-phenyl)-3,4,8,12-tetramethyl-trideca-4,7,11-trien-1-one ] , together with one known compound , Kopetdaghin C, were isolated from the root of F. latisecta. CONCLUSION In this research the structure of one new and one known sesquiterpene in the root of F. latisecta was elucidated.

متن کاملTwo New Sesquiterpene Coumarins, Ferusinol and Samarcandin Diastereomer, from Ferula sinaica
Re-investigation of the methylene chloride extract of the roots of Ferula sinaica gave ferusinol, a new sesquiterpene coumarin with a rare carbon skeleton, and samarcandin diastereomer. The structures elucidation were determined by MS, 1H- 13C-1D and 2D NMR spectral data.

Six new sesquiterpene coumarin derivatives, fukanefuromarin H-M (1-6), were isolated from an 80% aqueous methanol extract of the roots of Ferula fukanensis. The structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic evidence, particularly heteronuclear multiple-bond connectivity (HMBC) and high-resolution MS. The sesquiterpene coumarin derivatives inhibited nitric oxide (NO) and inducible NO ...
