Zhongguo Zhong Yao Za Zhi. 2007 Mar;32(6):496-500. | Studies on chemical constituents in fruits of Eucalyptus globulus.[Pubmed: 17552153] | To study the chemical constituents in the fruits of Eucalyptus globulus Labill. METHODS AND RESULTS: The chemical constituents were isolated by various column chromatographic methods and structurally elucidated by IR, NMR and MS evidences. Fifteen compounds were obtained and identified as beta-sitosterol (1), betulinic acid (2), stigmasterol (3), euscaphic acid (4), 2a-Hydroxybetulinic acid (5), macrocarpal B (6), macrocarpal A (7), oleanolic acid (8), 3,4,3'-O-trimethylellagic acid (9), 3-O-methylellagic acid 4'-O-(2"-O-acetyl )-alpha-L-rhamnopyranoside (10), camaldulenside (Cypellocarpin C, 11), 3-O-methylellagic acid 4'-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranoside (12), 3-O-methylellagic acid (13), ellagic acid (14), and gallic acid (15). CONCLUSIONS: Compounds 4 and 5 from genera Eucalyptus, 1, 3 and 11 from plant E. globulus, and 6, 7, 9 and 15 from the fruits of E. globulus were isolated for the first time. |
