CHEMICAL CONSTITUENTS OF THE LEAVES OF ARTOCARPUS HETEROPHYLLUS L

Abstract

    From the methanolic extract of the leaves of Artocarpus heterophyllus L., seven compoundswere isolated, including (6R)-dehydrovomifoliol (1), wilsonol C (2), wilsonol B (3), phaseicacid (4), dihydrophaseic acid (5), vitexin (6), and rhaponticin (7). The structure of thesecompounds were determined by spectroscopic methods and compared with lecture data.Among them, six compounds (2-7) were isolated for the first time from Artocarpus genus.

Keywords: Artocarpus heterophyllus L., leaves, methanolic extract.
