Lignans from Dendrobium chrysanthum.

Abstract

A new neolignan glucoside denchyside B along with three known lignans have been isolated from the herbs of Dendrobium chrysanthum Wall. (Orchidaceae). The structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic methods.

[Studies on chemical constituents in stem of Dendrobium chrysotoxum].

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the chemical constituents of Dendrobium chrysotoxum. METHOD: The chemical constituents were isolated by various column chromatographic methods and structurally elucidated by spectral evidences. RESULT: Ten compounds were obtained and identified as (+)-syringare sinol (1), 5alpha, 8alpha-epidioxy-24( R)-methycholesta-6, 22-dien-3beta-ol (2), trans-3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-acrylic acid octacosyl ester (3), defusin (4), 3, 4-dihydroxy benzoic acid (5), 3, 4-dimethoxy-benzoic acid (6), vanillic acid (7), 3, 4-dimethoxy-benzoic acid methyl ester (8), 3, 5-dibromo-2-aminobenzaldehyde (9), heptadecanoic acid 2, 3-dihydroxy-propyl ester (10). CONCLUSION: Compounds 1, 2 and 6-10 were isolated from this plant for the first time.

[Application of FTIR spectroscopy to the analysis of eleven kinds of Dendrobium].

OBJECTIVE: To establish an FTIR method for the analysis of Dendrobium. METHOD: Using fourier transform infrared spectrometer to record the characteristic spectra of eleven samples of Dendrobium, and to compare the spectra by PCA (principal component analysis). RESULT: The FTIR spectra of the upper part of the stem displayed significant differences between fresh and dried samples of Dendrobium. On the other hand, differences were observed in the spectra of the middle and lower parts of stems of D. guangxieuse when compared to other species. CONCLUSION: The method of applying PCA to FTIR analysis is a rapid and dependable method for comparing samples of Dendrobium.

[A comparison of tissue formation and the content of polysaccharide between wild and cultured Dendrobium candidum].

OBJECTIVE: To compare the tissue formation and the content of polysaccharide between the wild Dendrobium candidum and the cultured ones and to find any existed differences. METHOD: Bare-handed microtomy and photomicrography; The content of polysaccharide is determined by phenol-sulphuric acid method. RESULT AND CONCLUSION: There are no marked noticeable differences between the wild D. candidum and the cultured ones in terms of the tissure formation and the content of polysaccharide.
