Abstract: | Diosindigo A, diosindigo B and biramentacéone have been isolated from heartwood of Diospyros melanoxylon. A violet pigment isolated from the same source has been shown to be a new pentacyclic quinone. Sunlight causes diosindigo B to change to the pentacyclic quinone and biramentacéone. The intense peaks at m/e 389 and 388 in the mass spectrum of diosindigo B are doublets which arise by fragmentation of both M+ and M+ + 2. |
