Journal Title: JOURNAL OF ADVANCES IN CHEMISTRY - Year 2015, Vol 11, Issue 3

Abstract

Twelve compounds, including three flavonoids, 5-hydroxy-4¢,7- dimethoxyflavone (1) [22], luteolin-7,3¢,4¢-trimethyl ether (2) and 5,3¢- dihydroxy-7,4¢-dimethoxyflavone (3), five benzenoids, methylparaben (4), vanillic acid (5), p-hydroxybenzoic acid (6), syringic acid (7), and isovanillic acid (8) and four steroids, b-sitosterol (9), stigmasterol (10), b-sitostenone (11) and stigmasta-4,22-dien-3- one (12) were isolated from the leaves of Aquilaria agallocha (Thymelaeaceae). All of these compounds (1-12) were obtained for the first time from the leaves of this plant.
