Distribution of ellagic acid derivatives and a diarylheptanoid in wood of Platycarya strobilacea
摘要:
4-O-Xylosides of ellagic acid, 3'-O-methylellagic acid and 3,3'-di-O-methylellagic acid have been isolated from the sapwood of Platycarya strobilacea; these compounds were absent in the heartwood. A new diphenylether-type diarylheptanoid, named platycarynol, was also isolated from the heartwood, together with ellagic acid, 3'-O-methylellagic acid and two known terpenoids.

ent-Eudesmane sesquiterpenoids, galloyl esters of the oak lactone precursor, and a 3-O-methylellagic acid glycoside from the wood of Platycarya strobilacea
摘要:
ent-Eudesmane sesquiterpenoids, 8,11-dihydroxy-2,4-cycloeudesmane, 11-hydroxy-2,4-cycloeudesman-8-one and 2,4-cyclo-7(11)-eudesmen-8-one, were isolated from the wood of Platyallya strobilacea, which has been used as an aromatic tree since at least the 18th century. On charring the wood, 2,4-cyclo-7(11)-eudesmen-8-one was detected in the smoke. In the charred wood, the concentrations of ellagitannins, such as galloyl pedunculagin, dramatically decreased, whereas concentrations of pentagalloyl glucose, and other gallotannins were relatively stable. In addition, two other compounds, the 6'-O-m- and p-digalloyl oak lactone precursor and the 3-O-methylellagic acid 4'-O-(4 ''-O-galloyl)-xylopyranoside, were isolated from the charred wood along with m- and p-digallic acid.
