Micropropagation of juvenile and adult Sorbus domestica L.
1991
Successful propagation of seedlings and mature trees of Sorbus domestica L. has been achieved by in vitro methods. Multiple shoot formation was obtained by placing shoot apices or nodal segments on a modified Schenck and Hildebrandt medium containing benzyladenine. Regenerated shoots were excised and induced to root on media with auxin. In the best treatments 75–85% of shoots from juvenile material rooted. Rooting capacity of shoots from mature explants was lower (30%) and was not improved by dipping the base of shoots in concentration solutions of indolebutyric or naphthaleneacetic acids. Plantlets were ultimately established in soil.
Determination of soyasaponins I and βg in raw and cooked legumes by solid phase extraction (SPE) coupled to liquid chromatography (LC)-mass spectrome…
2013
Legumes contain a rich variety of phytochemicals as soyasaponins, triterpenoidal glycosides that possess multiple health-promoting properties, such as lowering of cholesterol. In this work, the quantification of soyasaponins I and βg in 60 raw and cooked legumes by using a solid phase extraction (SPE) coupled to a liquid chromatography (LC)-mass spectrometry (MS) method was carried out. Results showed that lentils are a good source of soyasaponins, with a content of soyasaponin I that ranged from 636 to 735 mg kg(-1) and of soyasaponin βg from 672 to 1807 mg kg(-1). The cooking process produced a small loss of soyasaponins in water, that is, 4.8-8.7%, and partially converted soyasaponin βg …
30-Norfriedelane triterpenes from the stem bark ofCaloncoba glauca
1992
Abstract The stem bark of Caloncoba glauca has yielded three friedelane triterpenes of which two are characterized by the loss of C-30 and the presence of a C-27, C-15 lactone. They were identified, with considerable use of long-range C H coupling studies, as the known compound trichadonic acid (3-oxofriedelan-27-oic acid) and two new 30-norfriedelane derivatives, 3,27-dioxo-30-norfriedelan-20(29)-en-27,15α-lactone (caloncobalactone) and 3,27-dioxo-21β-hydroxy-30-norfriedelan-20(29)-en-17,15α-lactone (21β-hydroxycaloncoba lactone).
Friedelane triterpenes from the stem bark of Caloncoba glauca
1993
Further investigation of the stem bark of Caloncoba glauca has yielded three minor (D:A)-friedo-oleanane derivatives. These have been identified, on the basis of NMR studies, as the known compound kokoonol [3-oxo-(D:A)-friedo-olean-27-ol] and the novel natural products kokoonal [3-oxo-(D:A)-friedo-olean-27- al] and 3β,21β-dihydroxy-30-nor-(D:A)-friedo-olean-27-oic acid.
Polyacanthoside A, a new oleanane-type triterpenoid saponin with cytotoxic effects from the leaves of Acacia polyacantha (Fabaceae)
2018
The chemical investigation of the leaves and stem bark of Acacia polyacantha (Fabaceae) led to the isolation of a new oleanane-type triterpenoid saponin named polyacanthoside A 1 together with fifteen known compounds. Their structures were established from spectral , mainly HRESIMS, 1D NMR and 2D NMR and by comparison with literature data. The cytotoxicity of compound 1 and the analogues 8 as well as doxorubicin was determined in a panel of 9 cancer cell lines including sensitive and drug resistant phenotypes. Unlike the analogue 8, compound 1 as well as doxorubicin displayed cytotoxic effects in all the 9 tested cancer cell lines with IC50 values ranged from 8.90 μM (towards CCRF-CEM leuke…
Omphalocarpoidone, a new lanostane-type furano-spiro-γ-lactone from the wood of Tridesmostemon omphalocarpoides Engl. (Sapotaceae)
2013
Abstract Phytochemical studies of the wood and the stem bark of Tridesmostemon omphalocarpoides Engl. (Sapotaceae) led to the isolation of omphalocarpoidone (1), a new lanostane-type furano-spiro-γ-lactone together with β-amyrin acetate (2), taraxerol (3), spinasterol (4), lichexanthone (5), epi-catechin (6), spinasterol 3-O-β- d -glucopyranoside (7), tormentic acid (8), and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronorharman-1-one (9). Their structures were established on the basis of extensive NMR studies, mass spectrometry, and by comparison of the data with those previously reported in the literature. The structure of the new secondary metabolite was later confirmed by X-ray crystallography. Except for spinast…
A new dibenzofuran and other constituents from Ligularia caloxantha, a Chinese medicinal plant.
2008
A new dibenzofuran named 1,2,4-trimethyl-7,8-dimethoxy-dibenzofuran (1), together with seven known compounds, euparin (2), 2,5-diacetyl-6-hydroxy-benzofuran (3), 2-acetyl-5,6-dimethoxy-benzofuran (4), gummosogenin (5), lupeol (6), stigmasterol (7) and (E)-2,5-dihydroxy-cinnamic acid (8), were isolated from the roots of Ligularia caloxantha, a Chinese medicinal plant. The structures of the compounds were elucidated by spectroscopic methods.

Two New Acylated Tridesmosidic Saponins from Astragalus armatus
2010
Two new tridesmosidic glycosides of (3β,6α,16β,20R,24S)-20,24-epoxycycloartane-3,6,16,25-tetrol (=cycloastragenol), armatosides I and II (1 and 2, resp.), were isolated from the roots of Astragalus armatus (Fabaceae) as well as the known bidesmosidic glycosides of cycloastragenol, trigonoside II (3) and trojanoside H (4). Their structures were elucidated as (3β,6α,16β,20R,24S)-3-O-(2,3-di-O-acetyl-β-D-xylopyranosyl)-20,24-epoxy-25-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-6-O-β-D-xylopyranosylcycloartane-3,6,16,25-tetrol (1), and (3β,6α,16β,20R,24S)-3-O-(2-O-acetyl-β-D-xylopyranosyl)-20,24-epoxy-25-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-6-O-β-D-xylopyranosylcycloartane-3,6,16,25-tetrol (2). These structures were established by e…
The Influence of (2-Chloroethyl)trimethylammoniumchloride (CCC) on Growth and Photosynthetic Metabolism of Young Wheat Plants (Triticum aestivum L.)
1984
Summary The influence of (2-chloroethyl)trimethylammoniumchloride on growth and cell metabolism of Triticum aestivum var. Kolibri was investigated. CCC was added to the nutrient solution on the 11th day of development with a final concentration of 10 −2 mol·1 −1 . It immediately stopped root growth and showed a strong inhibitory influence on the growth of the leaves. Smaller and fewer cells accounted for the reduction in final leaf size of about 40 %. The content of soluble proteins and soluble reducing sugars were significantly increased in the treated leaves. CCC also exhibited a stimulating effect on the synthesis of RubPc-ase protein and the in vitro activity of this enzyme. In contrast…
