Abstract
Eight glycosides of 2- C-methyl- d-erythritol ( 1) were isolated from the fruit of anise, and their structures were clarified as 1- O-β- d-glucopyranoside, 3- O-β- d-glucopyranoside, 4- O-β- d-glucopyranoside, 1- O-β- d-fructofuranoside, 3- O-β- d-fructofuranoside, 4- O-β- d-fructofuranoside, 1- O-β- d-(6- O-4-hydroxybenzoyl)-glucopyranoside and 1- O-β- d-(6- O-4-methoxybenzoyl)-glucopyranoside of 2- C-methyl- d-erythritol ( 2– 9), respectively. Furthermore, 2 and 4 were isolated from the fruit of coriander, and 2, 3 and 4 were isolated from the fruit of cumin. Though the phosphate of 1 was known to be one of the first precursors of isoprenoids in the non-mevalonate pathway, and 1 is considered to be a common constituent in Umbelliferous plants, the glycosides of 1 are found for the first time.
