چکیده
From the methanolic extract of the rhizomes of Curcuma comosa cultivated in Thailand, six new sesquiterpenes, (+)- and (-)-comosols (1, 2), comosones I (3), II (4), and III (5), and dimethoxycurcumenone (6), were isolated. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of chemical and physicochemical evidence.

Curcuma ochrorhiza ('temu putih') and C. heyneana ('temu giring') are two Zingiberaceous species which are commonly used in traditional medicine in Malaysia and Indonesia. Phytochemical investigations on these Curcuma species have resulted in the isolation of six sesquiterpenes, namely zerumbone (1), furanodienone (2), zederone (3), oxycurcumenol epoxide (4), curcumenol (5) and isocurcumenol (6...
متن کاملPreparative isolation and purification of germacrone and curdione from the essential oil of the rhizomes of Curcuma wenyujin by high-speed counter-current chromatography.
High-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) was applied to isolate and purify bioactive compounds in the essential oil of the rhizomes of Curcuma wenyujin. Two sesquiterpenes germacrone and curdione were successfully isolated and purified using two-phase solvent system composed of petroleum ether-ethanol-diethyl ether-water (5/4/0.5/1, v/v) in tail to head elution mode. 62 mg of germacron...

Germacrane-type sesquiterpenes, with a flexible 10-membered ring unit as the structural and conformational features, play a central role in the biosynthesis and synthesis of other sesquiterpenes. In this report, two pairs of new sesquiterpene alkaloids, (+)/(-)-phaeocaulin A [(+)-1/(-)-1] and B [(+)-2/(-)-2], and two pairs of new sesquiterpenes, (+)/(-)-phaeocaulin C [(+)-3/(-)-3] and D [(+)-4/...
