Phenolic compounds of Bassia prostrata (Chenopodiaceae)

Abstract

The composition and content of phenolic compounds in plants of the polymorphic species Bassia prostrata (Chenopodiaceae) from geographically distant populations were studied by high-performance liquid chromatography. The material for the study was the aboveground part of the plant. The plants were collected in the flowering phase in Russia (Novosibirsk region, Republic of Tyva, Khakassia, Buryatia, Altai), Kazakhstan, Armenia. The phenolic compounds were extracted by double extraction with 70% ethanol. Component composition of the phenolic complex was investigated by Agilent 1200 chromatograph. Eleven phenolic compounds, including isoquercitrin, kaempferol-3-glycoside, isoramnetin-3-rutinoside, and luteolin were found in the composition. The quantitative content of each compound could vary from 0.1 to 10.8 mg/g in different populations. Chemotypes were determined for the qualitative and quantitative content of phenolic compounds

“…Thirty-one of them were unambiguously identified following structure elucidation of isolated compounds (Lu et al 2012b;Shaker et al 2013;Musa et al 2016;Kamel et al 2001;Xu et al 2014;Othman et al 2021b). The identification of the remaining flavonoids was performed directly in Bassia plant extracts using HPLC with UV detection (Rakhmankulova et al 2015;Xiao et al 2018;Petruk et al 2021) and by combination of chromatographic technique coupled with tandem mass spectrometry. Said et al (2021) have recently evaluated the flavonoid profile in aerial parts of B. eriophora using LC-ESI-MS/MS in negative-ion mode, which led to tentative detection of 28 compounds (Said et al 2021).…”

“…Although the research on flavonoids of the Bassia genus has been carried out intensively for several years, most quantitative studies focused on determining the total flavonoid content (TFC) or even the total phenolic content (TPC) (see Table S1, Supplementary information). Only a few reports on the quantitative determination of individual compounds have been published (Xiao et al 2018;Rakhmankulova et al 2015;Wang et al 2018;Petruk et al 2021). Wang et al (2018) measured the content of rutin (0.115 mg/g dw) in B. scoparia fruits by capillary electrophoresis.…”

“…Rakhmankulova et al (2015) revealed that naringin (5.03-13.53 mg/g dw) and rutin (1.71-8.13 mg/g dw) were dominant flavonoids in aerial parts of B. prostrata, while free-sugar flavonols, such as isorhamnetin, fisetin, and morin, were found in a lower content (0.11-0.75 mg/g dw, 0.01-0.76 mg/g dw, 0.01-0.03 dw, respectively) (Rakhmankulova et al 2015). Petruk et al (2021) also highlighted the high content of rutin (4.96-8.13 mg/g dw) and the presence of luteolin (0.1-3.0 mg/g), populin (0.1-6.4 mg/g), and isoquercitrin (0.1-3.4 mg/g) in the aerial parts of B. prostrata (Petruk et al 2021). The authors suggest that cytotype and habitat can influence the content of flavonoids in plant species (Rakhmankulova et al 2015;Petruk et al 2021).…”

“…In recent years, several studies have provided new data on the chemistry and biological activity of Bassia species (Xiae et al 2018;Houlihan et al 2019;Abd-ElGawad et al 2020;Gancheva et al 2020;Othman et al 2021a;2021b;Othman et al 2022;Said et al 2021;Petruk et al 2021). It is noteworthy that not only B. scoparia but also other hitherto unexplored Bassia species attracted scientific attention.…”
