Three phenylpropanoid glycosides named ningposides A (3-O-acetyl-2-O-feruloyl-alpha-L-rhamnopyranose), B (4-O-acetyl-2-O-feruloyl-alpha-L-rhamnopyranose) and C (3-O-acetyl-2-O-p-hydroxycinnamoyl-alpha-L-rhamnopyranose) along with the known compounds sibirioside A, cistanoside D, angoroside C, acteoside, decaffeoylacteoside and cistanoside F were obtained from the roots of Scrophularia ningpoensis.

Five species of Puccinia and two of Uromyces making 7 rust-host combinations are reported from Iran. Puccinia leveillei on Geranium sylvaticum, P. libanotidis on Libanotis transcaucasica, P. podospermi on Scorzonera laciniata and Uromyces scrophulariae on Scrophularia umbrosa are reported as new to the flora of Iran. For other three species viz. P. campanulae and P. gaubae on Campanula spp. and...

Three new minor iridoids were isolated from the roots of Scrophularia ningpoensis. They were elucidated as 8-Oferuloylharpagide, 8-O-(2-hydroxy-cinnamoyl)harpagide and 6-O-a-D-galactopyranosylharpagoside. # 1998 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

The bioactive component harpagoside was successfully separated from the crude extract of Scrophularia ningpoensis Hemsley by one-step purification using high-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC). A two-phase solvent system containing n-butanol:ethyl acetate:water (1:9:10) was selected following consideration of the partition coefficient of the target compound. A 276 mg quantity of the c...
