Chrysophanol, an Antimicrobial Anthraquinone from the Root Extract of Colubrina greggii

Journal of the Mexican Chemical Society, 2020
Abstract. The methanolic extract of the root of Colubrina greggii S. Watson showed antimicrobial activity against Bacillus subtilis andStaphylococcus aureus. The bioassay-guided purification of the organic crude extract resulted in the isolation and identification ofchrysophanol (1,8-dihydroxy-3-methylanthracenedione), as the metabolite responsible for

Chrysophanol Glycosides from Callus Cultures of Monocotyledonous Kniphofia spp. (Asphodelaceae)

Chemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2004
We established callus cultures of the monocotyledonous plants Kniphofia foliosa and K. tuckii (Asphodelaceae), which produce the anthraquinone derivatives chrysophanol and its glycosides. The minor product chrysophanol 8-O-beta-gentiobioside was fully characterized by spectroscopic analysis and synthesis.
