چکیده
THE TITLE SESQUITERPENE [SYSTEMATIC NAME: 6-methoxy-10-methyl-7-(propan-2-yl)-2-oxatricyclo[6.3.1.0(4,12)]dodeca-1(11),4,6,8(12),9-pentaen-5-ol], C(16)H(18)O(3), was isolated from pathogen-infected stele tissue of Gossypium barbadense. There are two mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit and the dihedral angle between their naphtho-furan systems is 86.48 (2)°. In the crystal, O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the hy-droxy groups and etheric O atoms link the mol-ecules into centrosymmetric tetra-mers. These tetra-mers are assembled into (010) layers via stacking inter-actions between the naphtho-furan systems [inter-planar distance 3.473 (3) Å] and short C-H⋯O contacts.

Purification and Characterization of S-Adenosyl-L-Methionine: Desoxyhemigossypol-6-O-Methyltransferase from Cotton Plants. An Enzyme Capable of Methylating the Defense Terpenoids of Cotton.
Cotton contains a unique group of terpenoids including desoxyhemigossypol, hemigossypol, gossypol, hemigossypolone, and the heliocides that are part of the plant's defense system against pathogenic fungi and insects. Desoxyhemigossypol is a key intermediate in the biosynthesis of these compounds. We have isolated, purified, and characterized from cotton stele tissue infected with Verticillium d...
متن کاملA new and efficient synthesis of 6-O-methylscutellarein, the major metabolite of the natural medicine scutellarin.
In this paper, a new and efficient synthesis of 6-O-methylscutellarein (3), the major metabolite of the natural medicine scutellarin, is reported. Two hydroxyl groups at C-4' and C-7 in 2 were selectively protected by chloromethyl methyl ether after the reaction conditions were optimized, then 6-O-methyl-scutellarein (3) was produced in high yield after methylation of the hydroxyl group at C-6 ...

FLAVONOID PROFILES, POLYPHENOLIC CONTENT AND ANTIRADICAL PROPERTIES OF CULTIVATED PLANTS OF Arnica montana L
Total flavonoid and phenolic content, antiradical properties and external flavonoid profiles on extracts of six samples of flower heads of cultivated Arnica montana was assessed. The studied samples were compared in relation to location of cultivation, origin of the seeds, time of harvesting, method of propagation: in vitro and in vivo. Four flavonoid aglycones were detected of examined exudate...
متن کاملSurface flavonoids of Centaurea stenolepis and the local endemics Centaurea davidovii and C. parilica (Asteraceae, sect. Lepteranthus) from Bulgaria
The species of Asteraceae have been found to be a rich source of externally accumulated flavonoid aglycones. This type of compounds attracts the attention, besides for their importance as chemotaxonomic markers, also for their ecological role. In the present study, two local endemic species, Centaurea davidovii and C. parilica, and one widespread species from the same group, C. stenolepis, are ...
