| Phytochem Anal. 2007 Jan-Feb;18(1):1-6. | | Simultaneous determination of benzophenones and gentisein in Hypericum annulatum Moris by high-performance liquid chromatography.[Pubmed: 17260692] | The content of the benzophenones, hypericophenonoside, neoannulatophenonoside, annulatophenonoside, annulatophenone, acetylannulatophenonoside and the xanthone derivative Gentisein have been determined in aerial parts, leaves, flowers and stems of Hypericum annulatum Moris.
METHODS AND RESULTS:
Extraction of samples with methanol by magnetic stirring at room temperature allowed a good recovery of analytes (from 90.70% for Gentisein to 103.81% for annulatophenonoside) and the precision of the entire procedure was < 6.05%.The mobile phase comprised methanol and 20 mm potassium dihydrogen phosphate (adjusted to a pH of 3.19 with o-phosphoric acid), and gradient elution mode was applied. The detection limits were 0.03, 0.02 and 0.001 microg/mL for hypericophenonoside, acetylannulatophenonoside and Gentisein, respectively. In contrast to leaves, flowers showed a tendency towards higher contents of Gentisein (9.35 +/- 0.07 mg/g) and neoannulatophenonoside (4.72 +/- 0.04 mg/g) than the other parts assayed. | | Nat Prod Commun. 2009 Jun;4(6):803-8. | | Globulixanthone F, a new polyoxygenated xanthone with an isoprenoid group and two antimicrobial biflavonoids from the stem bark of Symphonia globulifera.[Pubmed: 19634326] |
METHODS AND RESULTS:
Bioassay-guided fractionation of the stem bark of Symphonia globulifera has yielded three known xanthones, ugaxanthone (1), mbarraxanthone (2) and Gentisein (3), two biflavonoid derivatives named GB2 (4) and manniflavanone GB3 (5), and one new polyoxygenated xanthone with an isoprenoid group, named globulixanthone F (6). The structures of these compounds were elucidated by means of spectroscopic methods.
CONCLUSIONS:
The spectral data of 1 and 2 are reported here for the first time, as well as the antimicrobial activity of globulixanthone F against a range of microorganisms. We also report the total synthesis of the xanthone skeleton. |
