Flavonoid and Isoflavonoid Compounds from Leaves of Sainfoin
نویسنده
چکیده
The 5-deoxyisoflavones, afrormosin and formononetin have been isolated from healthy leaves of Onobrychis viciifolia. In addition to these compounds, several other flavonoid (isoliquiritigenin; liquiritigenin; garbanzol) and isoflavonoid (medicarpin; vestitol) derivatives including the new isoflavanone, vestitone (7,2'-dihydroxy-4'-methoxyisoflavanone), are present in leaves inoculated with the fungus Helminthosporium carbonum.

متن کاملIsoflavonoid derivatives from Lophira alata stem heartwood.
Six isoflavonoid derivatives among which three are new have been isolated from the stem heartwood of Lophira alata. The structures were elucidated from spectroscopic and chemical evidences. Two have unusual carbon skeletons, possibly resulting from a variant of isoflavonoid biogenesis. The two compounds form the first members of a new subclass of flavonoid compounds which we call "isobiflavonoi...

متن کاملCharacterization of an Isoflavonoid-Specific Prenyltransferase from Lupinus albus1[W][OA]
Prenylated flavonoids and isoflavonoids possess antimicrobial activity against fungal pathogens of plants. However, only a few plant flavonoid and isoflavonoid prenyltransferase genes have been identified to date. In this study, an isoflavonoid prenyltransferase gene, designated as LaPT1, was identified from white lupin (Lupinus albus). The deduced protein sequence of LaPT1 shared high homologi...
