An Evaluation of the Invasive Potential of Beach Vitex ( Vitex rotundifolia )

An Evaluation of the Invasive Potential of Beach Vitex (Vitex rotundifolia) Charles A. Gresham and Amber Neal The Belle W. Baruch Institute of Coastal Ecology and Forest Science, Clemson University P. O. Box 596, Georgetown, SC 29442 ABSTRACT This study was conducted to determine if the introduced woody plant Beach Vitex, Vitex rotundifolia (Verbenaceae), (BV), has the potential to displace nat...

Ten new labdane-type diterpenes from the fruit of Vitex rotundifolia.

Ten new labdane-type diterpenes were isolated from the fruit of Vitex rotundifolia L. (Verbenaceae), along with a known diterpene, vitexilactone. Their chemical structures were determined on the bases of spectroscopic data.

Phenolic compounds and flavonoids as plant growth regulators from fruit and leaf of Vitex rotundifolia.

Five phenolic compounds, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid methyl ester (1), vanillic acid methyl ester (2), 4-hydroxy benzaldehyde (3), 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (4) and ferulic acid (5), and four flavonoids, 5,5'-dihydroxy-4',6,7-trimethoxyflavanone (6), luteolin (7), vitexicarpin (8) and artemetin (9), were isolated from fruits and leaves of Vitex rotundifolia L. The biological activities of these nine comp...

Anti-inflammatory constituents from the fruits of Vitex rotundifolia.

Three new diterpenes (7, 15 and 17) and two new neolignans (19 and 20) along with nineteen known compounds have been isolated from the fruits of Vitex rotundifolia. Their structures were elucidated by a combination of 1D and 2D NMR, HRESI-MS, and CD data. All isolates were tested for their inhibitory activities on LPS-induced nitric oxide production in RAW264.7 cells. Of these, compounds 3, 4, ...
