jacaranone/ジャカランダ属

In a survey of plants from Ecuador with antiprotozoal activity, Jacaranda glabra was found to show promising activity against the Plasmodium falciparum K1 strain. Subsequently, activity-guided isolation of the dichloromethane extract from the leaves of J. glabra afforded four new phenylethanoid

Jacaranda oxyphylla Cham. is popularly known as 'caroba-de-São-Paulo' and it is used in traditional medicine for microbial infections. A new phytoquinoid (α/β-glucoside-4-phenylacetate-6-(1-hydroxy-4-oxo-2,5-cyclohexadiene-1-acetate) (1) was isolated from J. oxyphylla leaves, together with three

This study reports the isolation of a new phenylethanoid glucoside (1) from the leaves of Jacaranda mimosifolia along with jacaranone (2), followed by the comparative estimation of total antioxidant compounds, total polyphenols and total flavonoids from different solvent extracts of the leaves and

An aqueous ethanol extract of Jacaranda caucana Pittier (Bignoniaceae) showed in vivo antitumor activity against the P-388 lymphocytic leukemia system. Fractionation, accompanied by monitoring for biological activity, afforded a novel phytoquinoid derivative jacaranone, which exhibited both in vivo

The genus Jacaranda, an important representative of the tribe Tecomeae in the family Bignoniaceae, is interesting from both biological and chemical perspectives. In this review, a contemporary summary of biological and pharmacological research on Jacaranda species will be presented and critically
