Abstract
Scarlet morning glory, Ipomoea hederifolia L. (Convolvulaceae), is an ornamental vine native to the Americas with oxytocic, cytotoxic, antipsychotic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties. A chemical study of the glycosidic acids from the resin glycosides contained in the aerial parts was carried out, through their isolation as peracetylated derivatives, by recycling preparative liquid chromatography. Structure elucidation was performed by HR-MS in accordance with NMR. Four peracetylated derivatives of glycosidic acids, named hederifolic acids A-D, were identified as heptaglycosides and hexaglycosides linked to 3S,12S-dihydroxyheptadecanoic acid or 12 S-hydroxyheptadecanoic acid. Consequently, hederifolic acids B and D were found to be dehydroxylated homologs at C-3 of the fatty acid aglycones of hederifolic acids A and C, respectively.
