Published: August 2012

A total of 16 phenolic compounds, including one new and five known N-cinnamoyl phenylethylamides, one new pyrrole alkaloid named portulacaldehyde, five phenylpropanoid acids and amides, and derivatives of benzaldehyde and benzoic acid, were isolated and identified from a polar fraction of an extract of Portulaca oleracea. Their structures were determined through spectroscopic analyses.

Purslane is a plant with high nutritional content that is mainly produced in the central part of Mexico. The nutritional content of purslane depends on various factors such as climatic and soil conditions, phenology, and fertilization. This article describes the H NMR metabolomics profiling of purslane in relation to fertilization at two harvest stages: C and C (27 and 42 days after emergence).

Two new chromones, oleracone H () and oleracone I (), were isolated from L. and identified by UV, IR, UHPLC-ESI-QTOF/MS, 1D NMR, 2D NMR, and CD spectra. In 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) radical quenching assay, oleracone H () and oleracone I () presented scavenging activities with IC values (half maximal inhibitory concentration) of 16.
