This paper reports on the first phytochemical analysis ever performed on Jasminum tortuosum Willd. This analysis, mainly carried out by means of column chromatography separation, NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry, led to the isolation and the identification of four compounds, namely the lignans ginkgool (1) and olivil-4'-O-β-glucopyranoside (2) and the secoiridoids oleoside dimethyl ester (3) and oleoside 11-methyl ester (4). The presence of these compounds is significant from a chemotaxonomic point of view, confirming the correct botanical classification of the species and, from a phytochemical standpoint, may suggest its possible use in the ethno-medicinal field.

Article Synopsis
- - The study sequenced seven Jasminum species, creating twelve complete chloroplast genomes that revealed sizes between 159 and 165 kb with a consistent number of genes across species, including protein-coding, tRNA, and rRNA genes.
- - Notable findings included significant genome size differences in J. nudiflorum due to increased forward repeats and mutations observed in the accD gene of J. sambac, highlighting potential mutation hotspots in specific genes.
- - Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated clear groupings among species, indicating genetic relationships and gene flow, solidifying the understanding of Jasminum's evolutionary patterns and supporting its monophyletic nature within the Oleaceae family.
