A NMR study of two new pterocarpans isolated from the roots of Harpalyce brasiliana is described. In addition to 1D NMR, 2D shift-correlated NMR pulse sequences ((1)H-(1)H-COSY, HSQC and HMBC) were used to establish the structures, and unambiguously perform the (1)H and (13)C chemical shift
Pterocarpans, a special kind of isoflavonoids possessing two contiguous benzofuran and benzopyran rings, have been reported as possessing several biological activities. In order to isolate and identify the active principles possibly responsible for the stronger activity of the EtOH extract from
Secretory phospholipases A(2) (sPLA(2)) exert proinflammatory actions through lipid mediators. These enzymes have been found to be elevated in many inflammatory disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis, sepsis, and atherosclerosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of harpalycin 2
Edunol (3), a pterocarpan isolated from Harpalyce brasiliana, a plant used in the northeast of Brazil against snakebites, was obtained by synthesis and showed antimyotoxic, antiproteolytic and PLA2 inhibitor properties. These proprieties could be improved through the synthesis of a bioisoster (5),
Two hundred fifteen compounds isolated from plants of Northeastern Brazil flora have been assayed against epimastigote forms of Trypanosoma cruzi, using the tetrazolium salt MTT as an alternative method. Eight compounds belonging to four different species: Harpalyce brasiliana (Fabaceae), Acnistus
BACKGROUND
Harpalycin 2 (HP-2) is an isoflavone isolated from the leaves of Harpalyce brasiliana Benth., a snakeroot found in northeast region of Brazil and used in folk medicine to treat snakebite. Its leaves are said to be anti-inflammatory. Secretory phospholipases A2 are important toxins found
