New flavonoid glycosides from Aconitum naviculare (Brühl) Stapf, a medicinal herb from the trans-Himalayan region of Nepal

Abstract

Three new flavonoid glycosides, 3-O-[beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->3)-(4-O-trans-p-coumaroyl)-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->6)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl]-7-O-[beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->3)-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl]kaempferol, 3-O-[beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->3)-(4-O-trans-p-coumaroyl)-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->6)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl]-7-O-[beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->3)-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl]quercetin and 7-O-[beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->3)-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl]quercetin were isolated from the aqueous extract of the aerial parts of Aconitum naviculare. Their structures were elucidated by spectral analysis (HRAPI-TOF MS, 1H, 13C NMR, HMQC, HMBC, DFQ-COSY, ROESY and TOCSY).
