Four new hydrolyzable tannins (phyllanthusiins A-D), a new polyphenol of related structure (phyllanthusiin E), and eight known polyphenols have been isolated from the leaves of Phyllanthus flexuosus. On the basis of the spectroscopic methods including 1H-13C long-range two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance techniques, phyllanthusiins A (9), B (12) and C(14), were characterized as oxidative metabolites of geraniin, each having a different new acyl group biogenetically formed via an oxidative cleavage of the dehydrohexahydroxydiphenoyl group, on the 1C4 glucopyranose core. Phyllanthusiin D (15) was determined to be a condensate of geraniin with acetone, and phyllanthusiin E (16), was an oxidized congener of ellagic acid.
从蛇菰(Phyllanthus flexuosus)的叶子中分离出了四种新的可
水解
单宁(Phyllanthusiins A-D)、一种相关结构的新型多
酚(Phyllanthusiin E)以及八种已知多
酚。根据包括1H-13C长程二维核磁共振技术在内的光谱学方法,Phyllanthusiins A(9)、B(12)和C(14)被鉴定为-geraniin的氧化代谢产物,每种都具有不同的新酰基,通过对去氢六羟基二苯酰基(dehydrohexahydroxydiphenoyl)基团的氧化裂解,在1C4
葡萄糖吡喃核心上生成。Phyllanthusiin D(15)被确定为geraniin与
丙酮的缩合物,而Phyllanthusiin E(16)则是
鞣酸的氧化同类物。
