Glycosides from Breynia fruticosa and Breynia rostrata.

Glycosides, 3-acetyl-(-)-epicatechin 7-O-beta-glucopyranoside (1), 3-acetyl-(-)-epicatechin 7-O-(6-isobutanoyloxyl)-beta-glucopyranoside (2), 3-acetyl-(-)-epicatechin 7-O-[6-(2-methyl-butanoyloxyl)]-beta-glucopyranoside (3), (5Z)-6-[5-(2-hydroxypropan-2-yl)-2-methyl-tetrahydrofuran-2-yl]-3-methylhexa-1,5-dien-3-O-beta-glucopyranoside (4), hydroquinone O-[6-(3-hydroxyisobutanoyl)]-beta-galactopyranoside (5), 4-(4-O-beta-glucopyranosyl-phenoxy)-1-O-beta-glucopyranosyl-1,3-benzenediol (6), 7,8-erythro-dihydroxy-3,4,5-trimethoxy-phenyl-propane8-O-beta-glucopyranoside (7), 6,7-dimethylbenzofuranol 5-O-beta-xylopyranosyl-(1-->6)-beta-glucopyranoside (8), along with 30 known glycosides, were isolated from Breynia fruticosa and Breynia rostrata (Euphorbiaceae). Their structures were determined on the basis of spectroscopic analysis and chemical methods. 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
