Chemical Constituents of Berchemia Lineata

Phenolic Compounds From the Stems and Leaves of Berchemia lineata (L.) DC

“…By comparing the spectral data of these compounds with those reported in the literature, the structures of 11 known compounds are identified as vittarin-B ( 9 ) ( Wu et al, 2005 ), demethylflavasperone-10- O - β -D-glucopyranoside ( 10 ) ( Xiong et al, 2019 ), rubrofusarin-6- O - β -D-glucopyranoside ( 11 ) ( Messana et al, 1991 ), rubrofusarin-6- O - α -L-rhamnosyl-(1→6)- O - β -D-glucopyranside ( 12 ) ( Shen et al, 2007 ), kaempferol-3- O - α -L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→6)- β -D-glucopyranoside ( 13 ) ( Thissera et al, 2020 ), quercetin ( 14 ) ( Xiong et al, 2019 ), kaempferol ( 15 ) ( Li et al, 2016 ), naringenin ( 16 ) ( Gao et al, 2005 ), dihydrokaempferol ( 17 ) ( Lu et al, 2015 ), 2-hydroxyemodin 1-methyl ether ( 18 ) ( Lin et al, 2001 ), emodin ( 19 ) ( Cohen et al, 1995 ).…”

“…Previous phytochemical studies on B. floribunda and B. polyphylla showed that they mainly include flavonoids, glycosides, lignans, quinones, and terpenoids ( Chen et al, 2006 ). However, there are few studies on the chemical constituents of B. lineata , only some report chromones, flavonoids, and lignans ( Shen et al, 2010a ; Shen, et al, 2010b ; Li et al, 2016 ; Jiang et al, 2019 ). To further search for new active compounds from B. lineata , phytochemical investigations of an extract of the stems and leaves of this plant afforded eight new phenolic compounds and eleven known analogues ( Figure 1 ).…”
