Abstract
Six acylated anthocyanins have been isolated from the flowers of Ipomoea congesta R. Brown. One has been previously described as an acylated peonidin derivative. Three others are isomers, derived from peonidin-3-(caffeylsophoroside)-5-glucoside. The fifth was characterised as peonidin-3-( p-coumarylcaffeylsophoroside)-5-glucoside and the last as peonidin-3-(coumarylsophoroside)-5-glucoside. It is noteworthy that the anthocyanins found in this species have the same glycosidic pattern, 3-sophoroside-5-glucoside, as those reported for the cyanidin derivatives in Ipomoea cairica flowers. Acylated anthocyanin occurrence in Tubiflorae order is of chemotaxonomical value.
