Publication date: June 2018 Source:Biochemical Systematics and Ecology, Volume 78 Author(s): Sheikh Zain Ul Abidin, Abidah Parveen, Raees Khan, Mushtaq Ahmad, Ikhlas A. Khan, Zulfiqar Ali Eleven compounds including three monoterpene-phenyl esters (1-3), a monoterpene glucoside (4), five sesquiterpenoids/sesquiterpene-phenyl esters (5-9), a phenolic acid glucoside (10), and uridine (11) were isolated from the aerial parts of Ferula oopoda (Boiss. & Buhse) Boiss. Structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic methods and comparison with previously reported data. Compound 1 was found to be new compound. NMR data of compounds 5 and 6 are reported here for the first time. Moreover, these compounds were reported for the first time from this species. This paper deals with the isolation and structure elucidation of the metabolites from F. oopoda and their chemotaxonomic significance.
