Noncyanogenic Cyanoglucoside Cyclooxygenase Inhibitors from Simmondsia chinensis
ABSTRACT: Two new non-cyanogenic cyanoglucoside dimers, simmonosides A and B (1 and 2), were identified from the aqueous extract of jojoba (_Simmondsia chinensis_) leaves. 1 and 2 are the first examples of non-cyanogenic cyanoglucoside dimers containing a unique four-membered ring, representing novel dimerization patterns at α,β-unsaturated carbons of a nitrile group in 1 and γ,δ-unsaturated carbons in 2. Their structures ... إقراء المزيد
