Abstract

Bioassay-directed fractionation of a methyl ethyl ketone extract of the roots of Endlicheria aff. resulted in the isolation of four new neolignans (1-4) and eight known compounds, namely, canellin A (5), canellin C (6), 3'-methoxyguianin (7), (7S,8R,1'S,5'S,6'R)-Delta(2',8')-3',6'-dihydroxy-5'-methoxy-3,4-methylenedioxy-4'-oxo-8.1',7.5'-neolignan (8), armenin-B (9), dillapiole (10), 1-allyl-2,6-dimethoxy-3,4-methylenedioxybenzene (11), and omega-hydroxyisodillapiole (12). The structures of the new compounds (1-4) were established as (7S,8R,1'S,5'S,6'R)-Delta(2',8')-5',6'-dihydroxy-3'-methoxy-3,4-methylenedioxy-4'-oxo-8.1',7.5'-neolignan, (7S,8R,1'S,5'S,6'R)-Delta(2',8')-3',5',6'-trihydroxy-3,4-methylenedioxy-4'-oxo-8.1',7.5'-neolignan, 2,4-dimethoxy-5,6-methylenedioxy-1-(2-propenyl)benzene, and 2,6-dimethoxy-3,4-methylenedioxycinnamyl alcohol, respectively, on the basis of spectroscopic interpretation.

Biosynthetic Transformations

Biosyntheic transformtions are multi-step, enzyme-catalyzed processes where substrates are converted into more complex products in living organisms. Simple compounds are modified, converted into other compounds, or joined together to form macromolecules. Discover the latest research on biosynthetic transformations here.
