Chalconoid and stilbenoid glycosides from Guibourtia tessmanii

Phytochemical studies on the stem bark of Guibourtia tessmanii yielded a dihydrochalcone glucoside, 2′,4-dihydroxy-4′-methoxy- 6′-O-β-glucopyranoside dihydrochalcone and a new stilbene glycoside, 3,5-dimethoxy-4′-O-(β-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→6)-β- glucopyranoside) stilbene besides the known pterostilbene. Their structures were established on the basis of one and two dimensional NMR spectroscopic techniques, FABMS and chemical evidence. © 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
