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.
Anti-Inflammatory Activity of Flavonol Glycosides fromErythrospermum monticolumDepending on Single or Repeated Local TPA Administration
1995
Two anti-inflammatory principles were isolated from the methanol extract of the leaves of Erythrospermum monticolum (Flacourtiaceae). The isolation was based on a guided bioassay of the inhibitory activity on TPA-induced ear edema in mice. These compounds were identified as quercetin 3-O-xylosyl(1-->2) rhamnoside and quercetin 3-O-rhamnoside. In addition, their effects on a chronic topic inflammation model were evaluated.
