Dibenzylbutane lignans from Virola sebifera leavesfn1fn1Part 14 in the series The Chemistry of Colombian Myristicaceae. For part 13 see Martinez and Torres (1997).

Sesquineolignans from the flowers of Centaurea furfuracea Coss. et Dur. (Asteraceae)

“…Acetylated lignans and sesquineolignans have been isolated before as plant products [13][14][15][16]. However, analogous compounds showing a cis-relationship between their two methine -lactonic protons are very rare in nature [17].…”

“…However, analogous compounds showing a cis-relationship between their two methine -lactonic protons are very rare in nature [17]. 13 C NMR spectrum was run on a Bruker AC 300 spectrospin at 75 MHz. Infrared spectrum was taken using a Jasco 420 FT-IR apparatus.…”

Metabolitos secundarios aislados de especies de la familia Myristicaceae que producen inhibición enzimática

“…De la especie Virola sebifera se identificaron: diacetato de rac-(8α,8'β)-4, 4'-dihidroxi-3,3'-dimetoxilignan-9,9'-diil 1, diacetato de rac-(8α,8'β)-4-hidroxi-3-metoxi-3' , 4'-metilenodioxilignan-9,9'-diil 2, (8R,8'R)-4'-hidroxi-3'-metoxi-3,4-metilenodioxilignan-9,9'-olida (haplomyrfolina) 3 [10]. Y los lignanos furofuranicos (+)-sesamina 4, (+)-kobusina 5, (+)-eudesmina 6 [11,12].…”

“…[56]. Con la especie Virola sebifera se fabrican jabones de tocador y manteca para el cabello por su alto contenido de grasas como los compuestos trimiristina y laurodimiristina [10].…”
