Amides and esters of phenylpropenoic acids from the aerial parts of Trifolium pallidum

Nat Prod Commun. 2011 Sep;6(9):1293-6.

Abstract

Two new derivatives of phenylpropenoic acids, N-trans-feruloyl-L-DOPA and O-trans-caffeoyl-malic acid dimethyl ester, along with four known N-trans-caffeoyl-L-DOPA (clovamide), N-trans-caffeoyl-L-DOPA-methyl ester, O-trans-caffeoyl-malic acid, O-trans-feruloyl-malic acid and quercetin 3-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside were isolated from the aerial parts of Trifolium pallidum. Their structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic methods including 1D- (1H, 13C) and 2D-NMR (DQF-COSY, HSQC, HMBC) experiments as well as mass spectrometry analysis.
