Constituintes químicos da casca do caule de Amburana cearensis A.C. Smith

Abstract: Recebido em 26/10/05; aceito em 30/3/06; publicado na web em 22/8/06 CHEMICAL CONSTITUENTS OF TRUNK BARK OF Amburana cearensis A.C. SMITH. The phytochemical analysis of the ethanol extract trunk bark of Amburana cearensis allowed the isolation and identification of twelve constituents: coumarin, sucrose, two phenol acids (vanillic acid and protocatechuic acid), five flavonoids (afrormosin, isokaempferide, kaempferol, quercetin and 4'-methoxy-fisetin), a phenol glucoside (amburoside A) and a mixture of glucosil… Show more

“…A espécie ocorre naturalmente no Nordeste do país, no bioma Caatinga, nos Estados do Espírito Santo e Minas Gerais, na Floresta Pluvial do Vale do Rio Doce e nos afloramentos calcários e matas decíduas dos Estados de Mato Grosso, Goiás, Tocantins, Mato Grosso do Sul e São Paulo (LORENZI, 1992). É utilizada popularmente no tratamento de doenças, sendo as cascas do caule e as sementes usadas sob a forma de chá por apresentarem atividades anti-inflamatórias e espasmolíticas, além de serem utilizadas nos tratamentos da asma, tosse e bronquite (CANUTO; SILVEIRA, 2006). Pelas características descritas e por sua grande importância econômica para a Região Nordeste, a espécie tem sido amplamente extraída, sendo suas populações naturais reduzidas drasticamente, estando hoje na lista das espécies ameaçadas de extinção, na categoria em perigo, publicada pela IUCN.…”

“…Different classes of organic compounds were reported, including triterpenes, steroids, flavonoids, glycerols, and derivatives of cinnamic acids (MANETTI et al, 2009 A. cearensis and H. martiana showed the highest percentage of inhibition (88.1% and 99.4%, respectively). Other studies focused on the husk of the stalk of A. cearensis, the main part of the plant used in popular remedies, showed the presence of many phenolic compounds in the plant, particularly flavonoids (CANUTO; SILVEIRA, 2006). These phenolic compounds, in addition to coumarin, may be responsible for the pharmacological activity of the species, as observed in tests performed with pure substances (LEAL et al, 2005).…”
