Cestrum parqui

Cestrum laevigatum-. K Cestrum probably referable to this species is sold as a marijuana substitute in Brasil under the name dama da noite or lady of the night (Schultes Hofinann 1980). No psychoactive compounds are known from this species. Cestrum parqui recently appeared in a list of putative Italian psychotropic plants (Festi Alliota 1990). [Pg.518]

Occurrence in the Solanaceae. p-Coumaric acid, caffeic acid, methyl caffeate, and methyl ferulate as well as certain of their 2,3-dihydro derivatives have been identified as constituents of the leaves of Cestrum parqui L Herit. with good phytotoxic activity against different species (D Abrosca et al. 2004). Family-specific phenylpropanoid acids like tropic acid or 2-hydroxytropic acid as acyl moieties of tropane alkaloids are synthesized via phenylalanine -> phenylpyruvic acid (l )-3-phenyllactic acid (Fig. 3.14 Table 3.1 (T5-T7-B)]. Tropic acid may occur as a metabolite of, e.g., hyoscyamine, but the free acid is not synthesized as such (for details see Sect. 3.4). [Pg.277]

Triterpenoid Saponins. A unique occurrence of triterpenoid saponins in a species from the Solanales was reported on two constituents of Cestrum parqui L Herit. leaves (Abdel-Gwad et al. 1997). These compounds were characterized by the aglycone oleanolic acid 3 30-linked to a trioside composed of (i) two glucose units and one xylose and (ii) glucuronic acid, rhamnose, and glucose. [Pg.368]

Outline. Saponins, sometimes termed saponosides, are glycosidic derivatives of steroids or polycyclic triterpenes which - dissolved in water - behave like soaps (lat. sapo ), i.e., produce a stable foam, emulsify fatty oils, and stabilize suspensions. They are able to lower the surface tension of aqueous solutions and to cause haemolysis. This is due to their lyobipolar character which is based on the lipophilic aglycone and the highly hydrophilic carbohydrate moiety. There is only one report on triterpenoid saponins in the Solanaceae (Cestrum parqui L Herit., see Sect. 7.5.1.), whereas steroidal saponins are common metabolites of this family. Saponins do not occur in the Convolvulaceae. [Pg.372]
