Abstract
The minor iridoid glucosides present in the aerial parts of Barleria lupulina Lindl. ( Acanthaceae ) have been identified as ipolamiidoside (7) and the new compound 6-O-acetylshanzhiside methyl ester (3). The structure of (3) was determined by spectroscopic and chemical methods, and was confirmed by a single-crystal X-ray structure determination. Crystals of (3) are orthorhombic P212121, a 43.75(1), b 8.151(3), c 5.695(2) �, Z 4. The crystal structure was determined at 295 K from diffractometer data [I528 reflections with I > 3σ(I)] and refined to a residual of 0.043. Shanzhiside methyl ester (1) and its 6-Oacetyl (3), 8-Oacetyl (2) and 6,8-O,O-diacetyl (4) derivatives, all of which occur in Barleria lupulina, have been found to inhibit the growth of wheat embryos.
