Chemical constituents of Ficus consociata Blume (Moraceae)

Abstract

Chemical investigation of the ethyl acetate extract of Ficus consociata leaves, collected at Bien Hoa city, Dong Nai province, led to the isolation and structural elucidation of seven compounds, including luteolin (1), cirsiliol (2), isoquercetin (3), quercetin 3-O-α-L-arabinopyranoside (4), nikotoflorin (5), hesperidin (6) and (2E,4E,1'S,2’R,4'S,6'R)-dihydrophaseic acid (7). Their chemical structures were elucidated by a combination of electronic circular dichroism (ECD) experiments and spectroscopic data (HR-MS, 1D, 2D NMR) analysis, and comparison with those reported in the literature. Although, these compounds were already known in other species, but this is the first report on chemical constituents of F. consociata.
