Two new pyrrole derivatives isolated from Salacia amplifolia Merr

Publication date: March 2017 Source:Phytochemistry Letters, Volume 19 Author(s): Fengyan Yao, Yanhong Chen, Yitan Zou, Quanzhi Ye, Shanshan Lv, Wansheng Chen, Lingxiao Liang, Lianna Sun Two new pyrrole derivatives Salaciamole (1), Salaciaglycoside A (2), long with one known compound 1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylic acid (3) were isolated from the roots of Salacia amplifolia Merr (Hippocrateaceae). The structures of the new compounds were deduced from their comprehensive spectroscopic analysis including IR, HR-EI-MS, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, DEPT, COSY, HMBC and HMQC. And the structure of the known compound was identified by comparison of their spectral data with those reported in the literature. Graphical abstract
