Sinville, Rondedrick D.; Alfs, Matthew G.; Dimick Gray, Sarah M. published the artcile< Phytochemical Investigation of Pilea pumila (Clearweed), Laportea canadensis (Wood Nettle), and Boehmeria cylindrica (False Nettle): Three Members of the Urticaceae Family>, Application of C19H34O2, the main research area is Pilea pumila Laportea canadensis Boehmeria cylindrica phytochem investigation.
Phytochem. anal. of 3 members of the Urticaceae family (eg Pilea pumila, Laportea canadensis, and Boehmeria cylindrica) was conducted using GC-MS. P pumila and L canadensis have several recorded historical medicinal uses by Native American tribes, whereas B cylindrica does not. This study was conducted to understand the historical uses in terms of chem. composition Plant material, separated into aerial or root portions, was dried and extracted using either ethanol or heptane at room temperature Sterols, fatty acids and esters, terpenes and terpenoids, saturated and monounsaturated hydrocarbons, small oxygen-functionalized organic mols., and tocopherols were observed using these methods. Plant sterols composed 30.3% to 62.2% of the observed extracts, followed by fatty acids and esters ranging from 0% to 49% and terpenes and terpenoids ranging 4.56% to 33.9%. All 3 plants contained γ-sitosterol as the dominant plant sterol and palmitic, linoleic, and linolenic acids and esters. The 3 plants differed significantly in the observed terpene and terpenoid composition Germacrene D-4-ol, known to have antifungal activity, was the major terpenoid identified in P pumila (7.42%-7.76%), phytol (4.13%), α-cadinene (3.96%), and cadina-1,4-diene (5.53%) were observed in L canadensis treatments, and squalene (2.20%-7.04%), phytol (4.17%), and cadina-1,4-diene (6.68%) were observed in B cylindrica treatments. Possible rationales for Native American medicinal uses were evaluated.
Natural Product Communications published new progress about Boehmeria cylindrica. 112-63-0 belongs to class esters-buliding-blocks, and the molecular formula is C19H34O2, Application of C19H34O2.
