Abstract

Eight compds. were isolated from the leaves of Jacaranda ovalifolia R. Br. and were identified as: 6'-Ph acetic acid ester of glucose (1), Me p-hydroxy Ph acetate (2), zizybeoside 1 (3), phenethyl alc. 8-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→2)-β-D-glucopyranoside (4), acteoside (5), isoacteoside (6), apigenin 7-O-β-D-glucuronopyranoside (7), and jacaranone (8). The structures of the compds. were detd. by phys., chem. and spectroscopic methods. Compd. 1 is isolated here probably for the first time from a natural source, compds. 2, 3, 4, 6 and 7 have been isolated for the first time from the genus Jacaranda, compd. 8 was isolated for the first time from J. ovalifolia R. Br., and compd. 5 was previously isolated from J. ovalifolia.
