Abstract-From
the seeds of Virola surinamensis, which were collected near Altamira and near Maraba, Para
State, Brazil, the following substances were isolated by chromatographic
techniques: two dibenzylbutanediol
lignans, dihydrocubebin
and the new dihydrocubebin
monolaurate,
two furofuran lignans, sesamin and asarinin, three dibenzylbutyrolactol
lignans, cubebin, ,!?-O-methylcubebin
and a-U-methylcubebin,
one dibenzylbutyrolactone
lignan, hinokinin,
one aryltetralin
neolignan,
galbulin, two tetrahydrofuran
neolignans,
galgravin and the new 4’-hydroxy-3’-methoxy-3,4-methylenedioxy-S.8’,7.0.7’-neolignan,
one flavone, tithonine, one isoflavone, irisolidone, and two new polyketides, 3-hydroxy-l-(1 %phenylpentadecanoyl)-2,6-cyclohexanedione and I-(5-phenylpentanoyl)-2,6-cyclohexanedione.
Different chemical constitutions
of the fruits from
the two localities were observed. 0 1997 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd
