Sesquiterpenes from Centaurea aspera

2005

Abstract The aerial parts of two subspecies of Centaurea aspera L. (Asteraceae) yielded the germacranolides 1a – h , 2 , 3 , 4 and 5 , the elemane derivatives 6d and 6f , the lignan matairesinol, the degraded terpene loliolide, and the onopordopicrin–valine dimeric adduct 7 . From these, compounds 1e , 3 and 6d are natural products. The chemical composition of the two subspecies is very similar, a circumstance which does not support a taxonomic subdivision of the species.

Flavones, sesquiterpene lactones and glycosides isolated from Centaurea aspera var. Stenophylla

1984

Abstract From the alcoholic extract of Centaurea aspera var. stenophylla benzoic acid, p-hydroxybenzoic acid, apigenin, 6-methoxyluteolin, 11,13-dehydromelitensin, melitensin, stenophyliolide, ethyl-7-O-apigenin-glucuronate and the glucosides of sitosterol and stigmasterol were isolated and characterized. Stenophyllolide was shown to be 9,15-dihydroxygermacra-1(10),4,11-trien-12,6-olide.

Typification of two Linnaean names: Centaurea aspera and Centaurea isnardii (Asteraceae)

2014

The typification of the names Centaurea aspera L. and C. isnardii L. (Asteraceae) is discussed. A lectotype for C. aspera is designated from original material conserved in UPS-BURSER (Joachim Burser Herbarium). Centaurea isnardii is typified by an illustration of Isnard (1719) confirming this name as a synonym of C. aspera subsp. aspera.

Structure and stereochemistry of stenophyllolide, a germacrolide from Centaurea aspera var. Stenophylla

1984

Abstract A crystalline compound, named stenophyllolide, obtained from an extract of Centaurea aspera var. stenophylla was shown to be 9β,15-dihydroxygermacra-1(10),4,11-trien-6α,12-olide by X-ray analysis. The molecular structure of stenophyllolide was solved with orthorhombic space group P2 1 2 1 2 1 , a = 11.719 (5), b = 13.389 (5), c = 8.646 (5) A for Z = 4, by direct methods and refined to a final R of 0.06 for 1198 observed reflections.
