Chemical Constituents of the Aerial Part of Zygophyllum gaetulum

An overview on pharmacological, ethnomedicinal, and phytochemical investigations of Zygophyllum gaetulum Emb. & Maire - an endemic species of southeast of Morocco

“…of the diversity of chemical compounds present in the stem roots, fruits, and leaves, which contribute to the overall complexity and unique properties of the essential oil extracted from Z. gaetulum. Phytochemical investigations by Belguidoum et al(14) showed that the aerial Part of Z. gaetulum contain (E)-3-sulfooxymegastigm-7-en-9-one, 3-Oα-L-arabinopyranoside (1→2) β-Dquinovopyranoside quinovic acid 28-Oβ-D-glucopyranoside ester (Zygophyloside H), Quinovic acid-3-O-β-D-2-Osulphonylquinovopyranoside (Zygophyloside D), 3-O-[ β -D-quinovopyranosyl]-quinovic acid, Cincholic acid 3-O-β-D-quinovopyranoside, Cincholic acid 3-O-β-D-quinovopyranoside, Cincholic acid 3-O-β-Dglucopyranoside, Quinovic acid-3-O-β-Dquinovopyranosyl-(28→1)-β-Dglucopyranosyl ester, 3-O-β-Dquinovopyranosylcincholic acid 28-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl ester, Quinovic acid-3-O-β-Dglucopyranosyl-(28 → 1)-β-Dglucopyranosyl ester, 3-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl cincholic acid 28-O-β-Dglucopyranosyl ester, Zygophyloside E, Zygophyloside G, quinovic acid 28-O-β-Dglucopyranosyl ester, Cincholic acid 28-O-β-Dglucopyranosyl ester (Fig.3).…”
