Chemical constituents from the fruits of Rhus typhina L. and their chemotaxonomic significance

摘要

This work describes the isolation and characterization of twenty-nine compounds from the fruits of Rhus typhina L, including eleven flavonoids (1-11), eleven phenols (12-22), two pentacyclic triterpenes (23-24), two organic acids (25-26), one lumichrome (27), one courmarin (28) and one pyrimidine (29) on the basis of their spectroscopic data. Compounds apigenin (1), daidzein (4), orobol (5), 3', 5, 5', 7-tetrahydroxyflavanone (6), naringenin (7), butein (8), (-)-catechin (9), quercetin-3-O-alpha-L-(3 ''-O-galloyl)-rhamnoside (11), 2-hydroxybenzoic acid (13), 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (14), vanillin (15), methyl 3,4-dihydroxybenzoate (16), 3,5-dihydroxybenzamide (18), tyrosol (19), caffeic acid (20), 3(2,4,6-trihydroxyphenyl)-1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-propan-1-one (21), phlorizin (22), friedelin (23), oleanolic acid (24), 4,4-dimethyl-heptanedioic acid (25), anthranilic acid (26), lumichrome (27), scoparone (28) and uracil (29) have not been recorded before in this plant. This is the first report on the occurrence of compounds 4-7, 9, 11, 13-14, 16, 18-21, 25-29 from the genus Rhus. Moreover, the chemotaxonomic significance of these isolated compounds was also summarized. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
