THE PARTIAL ELUCIDATION OF THE STRUCTURE OF A NEW COUMARIN FROM HYDRANGEA MACROPHYLLA SER.

Bruce A. Bohm, Ragai K. Ibrahim, G. H. N. Towers

Open publisher page 15 citations

Abstract

Umbelliferone and a new monohydroxymonomethoxycoumarin have been isolated from Hydrangea macrophylla Ser. The new coumarin has been shown to be a derivative of daphnetin. It is present largely in a bound form in all parts of the plant and is especially abundant in the roots. Chromatographic characteristics of the compound as well as those of several known coumarins are included in this report.
