Licania tomentosa is a Brazilian plant species that produces edible fruits, yet there is little information available concerning their nutritional and/or bioactive composition. This study aimed to evaluate the nutritional and polyphenol composition of L. tomentosa fruits (pulp and seeds) and measure antioxidant activity in ethanolic extracts.The pulp and seeds were excellent sources of fiber (25.62%–41.70%) as ...
Two new steroidal saponins, (25R)-spirost-5-ene-3β,26β-diol 3-O-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-[(1 → 2)-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl]-β-d-glucopyranoside (1) and (25R)-spirost-6-ene-3β,5β-diol 3-O-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-[(1 → 2)-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl]-β-d-glucopyranoside (2), along with the known diosgenin 3-O-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 4)...
This work presents the chemical study from the leaves of the species Baccharis salzmannii DC (Asteraceae) collected in the city of Jacobina, Bahia. The phytochemical investigation of the ethanol extract of leaves provided the isolation of the flavonoids 5,7,4 '-trihydroxy-flavone (apigenin) and 5,7,4'-trihydroxy-flavanone (narigenina), of the diterpene kaurenoic acid, two clerodane compounds, namely, (-)-(5R,6S...
