ABSTRACT
Do extrato em diclorometano do tronco de Kielmeyera cuspidata Saddi, Clusiaceae, foram isoladas cinco xantonas, 1,6-diidroxi-3,5-dimetoxixantona, 2-hidroxi-1-metoxixantona, 2,3-metilenodioxixantona, 4-hidroxi-2,3-metilenodioxixantona e 3-hidroxi-2,4-dimetoxixantona e dois triterpenos, α-amirina e β-amirina. O extrato exibiu toxicidade para Artemia salina e atividade antibacteriana para Micrococcus luteus, Bacillus subitilis, Staphylococcus aureus e Streptococcus mutans, não sendo ativo para Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa e Salmonela choleraesuis.
From the dichloromethane extract of trunk of Kielmeyera cuspidata five xanthones were isolated, 1,6-dihydroxy-3,5-dimethoxyxanthone, 2-hydroxy-1-methoxyxanthone, 2,3-methylenedioxyxanthone, 4-hydroxy-2,3-methylenedioxyxanthone and 3-hydroxy-2,4-dimethoxyxanthone and two triterpenes α-amirin and β-amirin. The extract displayed toxicity against Artemia salina and exhibited antibacterial activity against Micrococcus luteus, Bacillus subitilis, Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus mutans and it was not active against Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Salmonela choleraesuis.
ABSTRACT
Volatile oils obtained from the aerial parts of three Mikania species plants were analyzed by GC-MS and NMR. Forty-six terpenes among monoterpenes, sesquiterpenes and diterpenes were identified by this methodology. The analysis classified Mikania hookriana as diterpene producer as the majority Mikania species occurring in Brazil.
Óleos voláteis obtidos das partes aéreas de plantas de três espécies de Mikania foram analisados por CG-EM e RMN. Quarenta e seis terpenos, entre monoterpenos, sesquiterpenos e diterpenos, foram identificados. A análise classificou Mikania hookeriana como produtora de diterpenos, de acordo com a maioria das espécies de Mikania que ocorrem no Brasil.
