Chemical constituents isolated from Clusia criuva subsp. Criuva and their chemophenetics significance
Section snippets
Subject and source
Clusiaceae (Malpighiales) is a pantropical family consisting of about 15 genera and 800 species. The neotropical genus Clusia is one of the most representative genera of the Clusiaceae family and it encompasses up to 400 species (Alencar et al., 2020; Stevens, 2001). Species of this genus are highly diversified in Central and South America, where they can be found as trees and shrubs, hemi-epiphytes, epiphytes and lianes. Clusia species are recognized by their ability to produce a latex that
Previous work
Metabolite profiling by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS) of the non-polar fractions of the latex of the C. criuva subsp. criuva and C. criuva subsp. parviflora allowed the identification of some simple benzenoid compounds such as acetophenone, ethyl benzoate, benzaldehyde and p-anisaldehyde, several fatty acid derivatives, and several mono and sesquiterpenoids, such as camphene, β-pinene, α-ylangene, α-copaeno, (e)-α-bergamontene, α-muurolene, δ-cadinene, α-cadinene,
Present study
In the present work, we report the isolation and identification of 24 known compounds from Clusia criuva trunks, including five triterpenoids (1–5), four steroids (6–9), seven polyprenylated benzophenone derivatives (10–16), four xanthones (17–20), two biphenyls (21–22), and two tocotrienol derivatives (23–24) (Fig. 1, Fig. 2, Fig. 3). Their structures were proposed after careful analysis of 1H and 13C NMR, DEPT 135, HMBC, HMQC, COSY, NOESY and IR spectra as well as comparison with the
Chemophenetics importance
Clusia criuva Cambess went through a recent taxonomic reorganization based on the stamen/staminode morphology and geographical occurrence, causing it to be divided into two subspecies currently recognized as C. criuva subsp. criuva and C. criuva subsp. parviflora (Cortez et al., 2019). In C. criuva subsp. criuva, the anthers are three to five times larger than the apical connective extension, whereas in C. criuva subsp. parviflora the anthers are two to six times smaller than the apical
