The structural elucidation of a Novel iridoid derivative from Tachiadenus longiflorus (Gentianaceae) using the LSD Programme and Quantum Chemical Computations
Résumé
Oleanolic acid, scoparone, scopoletin and a novel iridoid derivative, angelone, were isolated from Tachiadenus longiflorus (Gentianaceae). The structure of angelone was determined from NMR data, given as input to the Logic for Structure Determination Programme, and was finally confirmed by comparison of experimental 13C‐NMR chemical shifts with those obtained by quantum mechanical calculations.
