Exploring the Phytochemicals of Acacia melanoxylon R. Br

Invasive species are currently a world menace to the environment, although the study of their chemistry may provide a means for their future beneficial use. From a study of Portuguese R. Br. five known compounds were isolated: lupeol, 3β- -coumaroyl lupeol, 3β- -coumaroyl lupeol (dioslupecin A), kol...

Zusammenfassung:Invasive species are currently a world menace to the environment, although the study of their chemistry may provide a means for their future beneficial use. From a study of Portuguese R. Br. five known compounds were isolated: lupeol, 3β- -coumaroyl lupeol, 3β- -coumaroyl lupeol (dioslupecin A), kolavic acid 15-methyl ester and vomifoliol (blumenol A). Their structures were elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry, and as a result some corrections are made to their previous C NMR assignments. Cytotoxicity of 3β- -coumaroyl lupeol (dioslupecin A) and kolavic acid 15-methyl ester was evaluated against HCT116 human colorectal cancer cells although biological activity was not evident.
