AI Article Synopsis

  • Researchers isolated a new compound called lehmanniaside from the Bunge plant, which is part of the Leguminosae family.
  • The chemical structure of lehmanniaside was determined using advanced techniques like high-resolution mass spectrometry (HR-MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy.
  • Preliminary tests revealed that lehmanniaside has some weak biological activities, including anthelmintic (anti-worm), antifungal, and cytotoxic properties.

Article Abstract

Chemical investigation of the aerial parts of Bunge (Leguminosae) led to the isolation and identification of a new cycloartane triterpene glycoside - lehmanniaside (2'-O-acetyl-3--O-D-xylopyranosyl-3,6,16,24-tetrahydroxy-20,25-epoxycycloartane). Its structure was elucidated by means of spectroscopic analysis (HR-MS, 1D and 2D NMR). Bioassays showed that lehmanniaside exhibits weak anthelmintic, antifungal, and cytotoxic activities.
