The benzene extract from the roots of FERULA COMMUNIS afforded the coumarin ferulenol ( 1) and the structurally related acetylenes named ferulinolone [3-(1,2-dihydrofalcarinolonyl)-ferulenol] ( 4) and decarboxyferulinolone [2-nor-3-(1,2-dihydrofal-carinolonyl-ferulenol] ( 7). The structures of these substances were deduced from their spectral data and those of their derivatives, mainly from the (1)H- and (13)C-NMR 1D and 2D spectra (one bond and long-range correlations). Methoxylatifolone ( 10) was also isolated from this extract.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
