Chemical Constituents of Domestic Quercus spp. Barks

This study was carried out to investigate the chemotaxonomical correlation and chemical constituents of domestic Quercus spp. barks. The barks of Q. mongolica, Q. aliena, Q. serrata, Q. acutissima, Q. dentata, and Q. variabilis were collected in the experimental forest of Kangwon National University. The combined extracts were successively fractionated with n-hexane, methylene chloride and ethyl acetate using a separation funnel. A portion of the ethyl acetate and H2O soluble materials of each species were chromatographed on a Sephadex LH-20 column using various aqueous MeOH and EtOH-hexane as washing solvents. Spectrometric analysis such as NMR and MS, including TLC, were performed to characterize the structures of the isolated compounds. Ellagic acid (0.03 g), (+)-catechin (4.59 g), taxifolin (3.35 g), and glucodistylin (20.52 g) were isolated from Q. mongolica bark. Gallic acid (0.18 g), (+)-catechin (8.52 g), (+)-gallocatechin (0.09 g), taxifolin (0.54 g), and glucodistylin (3.28 g) were characterized from Q. acutissima bark. Gallic acid (0.38 g), ellagic acid (0.11 g), (+)-catechin (2.01 g), (+)-gallocatechin (0.12 g), and glucodistylin (0.39 g) were identified from Q. dentata bark. Ellagic acid (1.51 g), (+)-catechin (21.91 g), and glucodistylin (3.91 g) were purified from Q. aliena bark. Ellagic acid (0.84 g), (+)-catechin (0.82 g), taxifolin (4.02 g), and glucodistylin (21.50) were isolated from Q. serrata bark. Gallic acid (0.24 g), caffeic acid (0.05 g), (+)-catechin (0.32 g), and glucodistylin (0.65 g) were purified from Q. variabilis bark. (+)-Catechin and glucodistylin were isolated from all the barks. Glucodistylin can be a taxonomic index on Quercus spp.

국내산 참나무속 수종 수피의 추출성분

국내산 낙엽성 참나무류인 신갈나무, 상수리나무, 떡갈나무, 졸참나무, 갈참나무 및 굴참나무 수피의 추출성분의 구조를 규명하고 수종 상호간 성분의 특성 및 연관성 등을 조사하였다. 그 결과 신갈나무에서 화합물 2(ellagic acid, 0.03 g), 4 ((+)-catechin, 4.59 g), 6 (taxifolin, 3.35 g) 및 7 (glucodistylin, 20.52 g)을 상수리 나무에서는 화합물 1 (gallic acid, 0.18 g), 4 ((+)-catechin, 8.52 g), 5 ((+)-gallocatechin, 0.09 g), 6 (taxifolin, 0.54 g) 및 7 (glucodistylin, 3.28 g)을 떡갈나무에서는 화합물 1 (gallic acid, 0.38 g), 2 (ellagic acid, 0.11 g) 4 ((+)-catechin, 2.01 g), 5 ((+)-gallocatechin, 0.12 g) 및 7 (glucodistylin, 0.39 g)을 갈참나무에서는 2 (ellagic acid, 1.51 g), 4 (+)-catechin, 21.91 g) 및 7 (glucodistylin, 3.91 g)을 졸참나무에서는 2 (ellagic acid, 0.84 g), 4 ((+)-catechin, 0.82 g), 6 (taxifolin, 4.02 g) 및 7 (glucodistylin, 21.50 g)을 굴참나무에서는 1 (gallic acid, 0.24 g), 3 (caffeic acid, 0.05 g), 4 ((+)-catechin, 0.32 g) 및 7 (glucodistylin, 0.65 g)을 분리하여 구조를 규명하였다. 국내산 참나무속 6 수종의 수피에서는 화합물 4 ((+)-catechin)와 7 (glucodistylin) 이 공통적으로 분리되었으며 두 성분 중 함유량이 상대적으로 높은 glucodistylin은 참나무류 수피의 지표성분 으로 이용될 수 있을 것이다.
