A new aromatic component from Oxalis pes-caprae

Nat Prod Res. 2010 Jun;24(10):958-61. doi: 10.1080/14786410902809286.

Abstract

The fresh leaves and twigs of Oxalis pes-caprae were crumbled and extracted with ethyl acetate and methanol. The extracts were fractionated by chromatographic procedures, followed by structure elucidation using mass spectrometry and (1)H- and (13)C-NMR spectroscopy and a new phenyl cinnamate derivative was identified, along with some known compounds.
