Abstract

Thirteen phenolic glycosides, together with fourteen various known compounds, were isolated from the methanolic extract of leaves of Flacourtia indica. Twelve of these were composed of gentisyl or salicyl alcohols, glycosylated on the phenol and acylated on the primary alcohol with various more or less oxidized forms of pyrocatechuic acid. A number of positions on the glucose or on the acid were further acylated by benzoic or cinnamic acid. In addition to these, a glucoside of a phenyl propanoid was also isolated. The gross structures were elucidated by spectroscopic means including 1D and 2D NMR experiments and HR-ESI-MS analyses. Several of these structures, for example, xylosmin, were previously described but it proved extremely difficult to conclude on their exact identity with the absence of clear data on absolute configuration in the literature.
