Salsola

Alkaloids of Salsola Richtsri. This member of the botanical family Chenopodiaceie has been shown by Orekhov and Proskurnina to contain three alkaloids of which two are closely related to the typical cactus alkaloids.

Soda as well as potash have also been made, since early antiquity, by burning weeds until only their ash remains - thus known as either soda ash or potash ash. The ash may also contain as much as 5% of sodium or potassium carbonate. Kelp, a large seaweed of the order Laminaria, and barilla plants, of the genus Salsola, which grow on many seashores, have... 

With very few exceptions, naturally occurring acids and alkalies are weak. All acids known in antiquity were of organic origin some occur in fruits, especially in unripe fruitjuices. Most ancient alkalies were derived from the ash of plants such as barilla, Salsola soda and Salsola kali (Russian thistle), and kelp.

Georg Adolph Suckow, in his "Introduction to Economic and Technical Chemistry, described in 1784 the preparation of soda by burning certain marine plants such as Fucus vesiculosus, Chenopodium maritimum, and Salsola kali, and leaching it from the half-vitrified ashes. This industry flourished at Alicante, Spain, at Alexandria, Egypt, and along the coasts of Italy and France (47). 

In an attempt to find out whether the presence of soda or potash depended on a specific difference in the plants which produce them or on the composition of the soils, du Hamel devoted many years to agricultural experiments, at his estate at Denainvilliers, on the culture of the common saltwort (Salsola kali), a plant used for the manufacture of soda ash. The final analyses of the ash of this plant proved that in the first year the mineral alkali still predominated, but that in succeeding years the vegetable alkali rapidly increased until finally, after a few generations, the soda had almost disappeared (50). In these experiments, he had for many years the invaluable and enthusiastic help of his brother, M. de Denainvilliers. In his eulogy of du Hamel in the History of the Academy of Sciences, the Marquis de Condorcet gave the following characterizations of the two brothers ...

Betacyanins and betaxanthins, along with alkaloids in some genera, arc found in the family but no one type is prominent or considered characteristic. Of 87 species tested in this survey, the following were confirmed alkaloid-positive as indicated in the earlier work on the family Alriplex canescens (2/8), A. semibaccata, A. vestila, Beta vulgaris, Chenopodium album (1/7), Salsola kali, Suaeda frui-licosa, S. linearis.

A number of putrescine derivatives have been detected in nature for which one or two cinnamic acid analogs with amide linkages are known 4-coumaroylputrescine (2), di-4-coumaroylputrescine (3), feruloylpu-trescine (4) (subaphylline), diferuloylputrescine (5), caffeoylputrescine (6) (paucine), dicaffeoylputrescine (7), sinapoylputrescine (8), and disinapoyl-putrescine (9). Paucine, one of the first diaminoalkane alkaloids known since 1894 as a component of the seed of Pentaclethra macrophylla, was hydrolyzed (40% KOH - H20) to give putrescine and caffeic acid. Structure 6 was deduced (37) from this data together with spectroscopic data, especially mass spectra. Another derivative of putrescine, subaphylline (4), first isolated from Salsola subaphylla, was shown to be the monoferuloyl derivative of putrescine by hydrolysis (30% K0H-H20) (38). The structure elucidation of the other derivatives of putrescine (2, 3, 5, 7-9) mentioned before was undertaken in a manner similar to that of 4 and 6. Several compounds were synthesized and compared to the natural products and are summarized in Table II of Section V.
