RESUMO: "Nova fonte de quinóides, a superfi cie foliar de Pentacalia ledifl ora e Pentacalia corymbosa e suas propriedades antifúngicas". Foi demonstrada a ação antifúngica do extrato clorofórmico e de duas substâncias isoladas da superfície foliar de Pentacalia ledifolia (H.B.K.) Cuatr. e P. corymbosa (Benth) Cuatr. frente aos fungos fi topatógenos Fusarium oxysporum e Botrytis cinerea, cultivados em BDA (batata-dextrose-ágar). Destes extratos foram isolados, além de cumarinas já identifi cadas em estudos anteriores, dois derivados quinóides: (1-hidroxi-4-oxo-2,5-ciclohexadienil) acetato de metila ou jacaranona e (1-hidroxi-4-oxo-2,5-ciclohexadienil) acetato de etila ou metiljacaranona. Para o (1-hidroxi-4-oxo-2,5-ciclohexadienil) acetato de etila foi calculado CI 50 de 650 μg/mL para os dois tipos de fungos e o (1-hidroxi-4-oxo-2,5-ciclohexadienil) acetato de metila teve um CI 50 de 660 μg/mL.

Quinols identifi ed in the surface waxes of Pentacalia ledifolia (H.B.K.) Cuatr and P. corymbosa (Benth) Cuatr. leaves, possess antifungal activity against Fusarium oxysporum and Botrytis cinerea, cultured on PDA (potato-dextrose-agar) medium. These extracts were prepared by dipping fresh leaves in chloroform for 5 min, and afforded ethyl-(1-hydroxy-4-oxocyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-yl) acetate and methyl-(1-hydroxy-4-oxocyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-yl) acetate, the major surface compounds.
From leaves and flowers of Ageratina vacciniaefolia [1-7] we have isolated several compounds: a flavonoid, a diterpene [8] and a new compound identified as b-D-glucopyranosil ester of (-)17-(bglucopiranosyloxyl)-16-hydroxy-kauran-19-oic acid (see the formula). The structure was established by using 1 HNMR, 13 CNMR, COSY, NOESY and HMBC spectroscopic techniques (Table 1) [1,7].
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
