A qualitative and qwantitative study of the glycosidnl content of the different organs and parts of Citrullus colocynthis SCHRAD. were undertaken. Qualitative study revealed the presence af a-elateri~r 2-D-glucopyranoside and its aglycone in all organs; cucurbitacin B, I , and'L (both free and glycosidal forms) in stents, leaves, and fruits. A suggested procedure for the estimation of a-elateri...

A flavones glycoside isolated from the bark of ayurvedic plant, Nyctanthes arbortristis was subjected to various pharmacological studies. The glycoside was found to be effective on, cardiovascular system and smooth muscles of intestine but no significant effect was found on CNS. The glycoside exhibited promising anti-inflammatory activity.

A new solanocapsine-type tomato glycoside, a novel and interesting natural steroidal glycoside, was isolated from a mini tomato, Solanum lycopersicum L. The chemical structure of the new minor glycoside, esculeoside B-5 (3), was determined to be (5S,22R,23S,24R,25S)-22,26-epimino-16β,23-epoxy-3β,23,24-trihydroxycholestane 3-O-β-lycotetraoside.

Several C-glycoside ketones and peracetylated C-glycoside ketones have been synthesized from 13 structurally-diverse aldoses sugars (including isotope labeled [1-(13)C]Glc, [U-(13)C]Glc, and [6, 6'-(2)H(2)]Glc) via an aqueous-based Knoevanagel condensation with aliphatic 1,3-diketones. Sodium adduct molecular ions observed by MALDI-TOF MS confirmed that the reactions are essentially quantitativ...

Poisoning with cardiac glycoside-containing plants is collectively the most important plant-associated poisoning of livestock in southern Africa. As a diagnosis of this significant poisoning is currently based on circumstantial evidence, a practical chemical procedure indicating the presence of cardiac glycosides in plants and animal specimens would be of considerable benefit. The fluorescence ...

background: echinophora platyloba dc (apiaceae) is one of the two endemic species of echinophora genus in iran. it has many folkloric uses and several biological activities but there is no information about its phytoconstituents. objective: in this work some of the secondary metabolites were isolated, purified and identified from n-hexane, ethyl acetate and methanol extracts from the aerial par...

Functional materials with anti-aging properties that prevent aging in the human body advance have been attracting attention pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetic industries, active research regarding ingredients employing flavonoids among such substances is underway. Therefore, this general review assessed previous studies effect of various on skin according to their structural characteristics. In...

The crystal structure of the title compound, C(27)H(45)N(3), has been determined as part of our investigation into the hydro-phobic modification of amino-glycoside anti-biotics. The isopropyl group showed disorder for the tertiary carbon (equal occupancies), with high thermal motion for the peripheral atoms of the isopropyl and azide groups also apparent in the structure. The axial disposition ...

[structure: see text] This manuscript describes our synthesis of the F-H subunit of gambierol. In addition to the synthesis of the tricycle, of note is an interesting protecting group influence on the generation of a C(23) C-glycoside as well as the use of ring-closing metathesis to generate a tetrasubstituted enol ether.
