achillea tenuifolia lam (asteraceae) afforded a methanolic extract from which after fractionation in solvents with different polarities two known flavones 3’, 5- dihydroxy- 4’, 6, 7- trimethoxy flavone (eupatorine, compound 3), 5- hydroxy- 3’, 4’, 6, 7- tetramethoxyflavone (compound 4), besides stearic acid (compound 1 ), lupeol (compound 2), daucosterol (β- sitosterol 3-o- β- d- glucopyranosid...

Five isoflavonoids, i.e. 5-hydroxy-7-methoxy-2’, 5’-dihydroxyisoflavone (AV4), 5, 7-dihydroxy-4’-methoxyisoflavone (AV6), 7-methoxy-5-hydroxy-4’-methoxy-2’-hydroxyisoflavone (AV7), 8-pregnyl genistein (AV9), 5,7-dihydroxy-8-pregnyl-4’-methoxy-2’-hydroxyisoflavone (AV10) and one coumarochromone – sophorophenolone (AV8) were isolated from EtOAc of in vitro callus cultures Astragalus vesicarius ss...

Five new triterpenoid saponins, fargosides A, B, C, D, and E, were isolated from the roots of Holboellia fargesii. The structures of fargosides A-E were elucidated on the basis of chemical and physicochemical evidence and found to be 3beta,20alpha-dihydroxy-29-norolean-12-en-28-oic acid 3-O-beta-D-xylopyranosyl-(1-->2)-beta-D-glucopyranoside (1), 3beta,20alpha,24-trihydroxy-29-norolean-12-en-28...

Two new spirostane glycosides, named polygokingiaside A (1) and B (2), 6 known (25 R)-26- O-( β-d-glucopyranosyl)-furost-5-en-3 β,22 α,26-triol 3- O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)- β-d-galactopyranoside (3), S)-26- O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1→2)- β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)- (4), (5), (23 S,25 R)-spirostan-5-en-3 β,23-dihydroxy-12-one-3- (6), (24 β,24-dihydroxy-12-one-3- (7), β-hydroxy-12-one-3- (8), were i...

The bark of Ceriops tagal has been used in the Philippines for folk treatment diabetes mellitus (DM). Through an α-glucosidase inhibition assay guided isolation, constituents from detannified methanolic extract were isolated and identified to be methyl 2,4-dihydroxy-3,6- dimethyl benzoate (1), isopimar-7-ene-15S,16-diol (2), betulinic acid (3), lupeol (4), 2,4-dihydroxy-6-methyl (5). Compounds ...

A new dihydrochalcone derivative, 4',6'-dihydroxy-2',4-dimethoxy-5'-(2''-hydroxybenzyl)dihydrochalcone (1) and one known dihydrochalcone, 4',6'-dihydroxy-2',4- dimethoxydihydrochalcone (2) were isolated from leaves and twigs of Cyathostemma argenteum. Their structures were established by spectral methods, mainly 2D NMR spectroscopic techniques, which involved combined applications of DEPT, COSY...
