A furan-2-carbonyl C-glucoside and an alkyl glucoside from the parasitic plant, Dendrophthoe pentandra

Abstract

A new furan-2-carbonyl C-(6′-O-galloyl)-β-glucopyranoside (scleropentaside F, 1) and a new alkyl glucoside [butane-2,3-diol 2-(6′-O-galloyl)-O-β-glucopyranoside, 2] were isolated from the entire hemi-parasitic plant, Dendrophthoe pentandra growing on Tectona grandis together with ten known compounds including, benzyl-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (3), benzyl-O-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→6)-β-d-glucopyranoside (4), benzyl-O-β-d-apiofuranosyl-(1→6)-β-d-glucopyranoside (5), methyl gallate 3-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (6), methyl gallate 3-O-(6′-O-galloyl)-β-d-glucopyranoside (7), (+)-catechin (8), procyanidin B-1 (9) and procyanidin B-3 (10), bridelionoside A (11), and kiwiionoside (12). In addition, compounds 1, 3–9 were isolated from this species growing on the different host, Mangifera indica. The structure elucidations were based on physical data and spectroscopic evidence including 1D and 2D experiments.
