Abstract: | Five isoflavonoids, 7,4′-dihydroxy-2′-methoxy-8-(γ,γ-dimethylallyl)isoflav-3-ene, 4′-hydroxy-2′-methoxy-6″,6″-dimethylpyran2″,3″:7,8]isoflav-3-ene, 5,7,4′-trihydroxy-2′-methoxy-5′-(γ,γ-dimethylallyl)isoflavanone, 5,4′-dihydroxy-7,2′-dimethoxy-5′-(γ,γ-dimethylallyl)isoflavanone and 3,9-dihydroxy-4-(γ,γ-dimethylallyl)pterocarpene as well as six known compounds were isolated from the roots of Erythrina poeppigiana. Their structures were established on the basis of spectroscopic evidence. |
