The CH(2)Cl(2)/MeOH extract of the stem bark of Erythrina vogelii (Fabaceae) from Nigeria has yielded two novel isoflavones, 7,4'-dihydroxy-8-(gamma,gamma-dimethylallyl)-2''zeta-(4''-hydroxyisopropyl)dihydrofurano[1'',3'':5,6]isoflavone (vogelin H) (1) and 7,4'-dihydroxy-8-[(2'''zeta,3'''-dihydroxy-3'''-methyl)butyl]-2'',2''-dimethyl-3'',4''-dehydropyrano[1'',4'':5,6]isoflavone (vogelin I) (2), a novel flavone, 7,4'-dihydroxy-2'',2''-dimethyl-3'',4''-dehydropyrano[1'',4'':5,6]flavone (vogelin J) (3), and eight known flavonoids.
Three new isoflavonoids, eryvarins M-O (1-3), two new 2-arylbenzofurans, eryvarins P and Q (4 and 5), and a new 3-aryl-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran, eryvarin R (6), together with three known compounds, were isolated from the roots of Erythrina variegata. The structures of these compounds were established by spectroscopic analysis. Eryvarin R (6) is an unusual 3-aryl-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran derivative with a formyl (CHO) group. Eryvarin Q (5) showed potent antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.
From the stem bark of Erythrina burttii, a new isoflavone, 5,2',4'-trihydroxy-7-methoxy-6-(3-methylbut-2-enyl)isoflavone (trivial name, 7-O-methylluteone) and a new flavanone, 5,7-dihydroxy-4'-methoxy-3'-(3-methylbutadienyl)-5'-(3-methylbut-2-enyl)flavanone (trivial name, burttinonedehydrate) along with three known isoflavonoids (8-prenylluteone, 3-O-methylcalopocarpin and genistein) were isolated. The structures were determined on the basis of spectroscopic evidence.
