Two new compounds from Urena lobata L.

Abstract

Two new compounds 1 and 2 have been isolated from the aerial parts of Urena lobata L. The structures of the two new compounds were established as ceplignan-4-O-β-d-glucoside (1) and 2,5-dihydroxy benzoic acid-7-(2,6-dimethyl-6-hydroxy-2,7-octadienoic acid) anhydride-5-O-β-d-apiofuranosyl(1 → 2)-β-d-glucoside (urenoside A) (2), on the basis of chemical and spectral evidence, including 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic data as well as mass spectrometry (HR-ESI-MS).
