Abstract

Cyclic mononucleotides − 2′,3′ cAMP and 2′,3′ cGMP − were found in several higher plants. They seem to be widespread, naturally occurring compounds. 2′ AMP, 3′ AMP, 2′ GMP and 3′ GMP, which were also isolated from several plants, are possibly artifacts of the cyclic nucleo­tides. In small amounts ApA was isolated from Abutilon grandiflorum, UpA and UpG from Mimosa pudica L. The biological influence of 2′,3′ cAMP and 2′,3′ cGMP on the nyctinastic leaf movement was tested. There is some evidence that both substances shift and dampen the circadian rhythm of Albizia lophanta.
