Glycosides of benzyl and salicyl alcohols from Alangium chinense

Chem Pharm Bull (Tokyo). 2001 Oct;49(10):1343-5. doi: 10.1248/cpb.49.1343.

Abstract

From the water-soluble fraction of the dried leaves of Alangium chinense, three new glycosides, benzyl alcohol beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 --> 2)-[beta-D-xylopyranosyl-(1 --> 6)]-beta-D-glucopyranoside, 2'-O-beta-D-glucopyranosylsalicin, and 2'-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-6'-O-beta-D-xylopyranosylsalicin were isolated along with seven known glycosides. The structures of the new compounds were determined by spectroscopic and chemical means.
