BACKGROUND
Dibenzylbutyrolactone-type lignans are the physiologically active constituents of the achene fruits of Cynareae. These lignans occur in glycoside/aglycone forms: in the highest quantity of the arctiin/arctigenin, matairesinoside/matairesinol and tracheloside/trachelogenin pairs found in
In order to identify and quantify fruit-lignans of Cirsium vulgare - authors introduced a special analysis system: with particular attention to the lignans enrichment/separation course. These synchronized, germination and enzymatic hydrolysis processes were followed by complementary gas and liquid
The molecular constituents of Cirsium brachycephalum fruits were identified, quantified and isolated for the first time. The lignan glycoside tracheloside was the main compound, which was transformed quantitatively into its aglycone trachelogenin by endogenous enzymatic treatment of the fruit.
In this paper, as novelties to the field, it is confirmed at first, that the fruits of Cirsium species, regarded as injurious weeds, do contain lignans, two, different butyrolactone-type glycoside/aglycone pairs: the well known arctiin/arctigenin and the particularly rare tracheloside/trachelogenin
