A new chemotype of Scoparia dulcis

Phytochemistry, 1993
Abstract A new chemotype was found in Scoparia dulcis from Taiwan, China and Thailand based on the diterpene composition. The new chemotype was characterized by the presence of scopadulciol and scopadiol. The structure of a new diterpene was determined to be 6-benzoyl-labda-8(17),13-diene-15,18-diol by spectroscopic methods.

Anticalculogenic Properties of Scoparia dulcis Linn

1994
Various plant preparations have been used for treatment of urinary stone disease, but their efficacy has not been proved. This paper attempts to scientifically study the anticalculogenic property of one such medicinal plant — Scoparia dulcis Linn. The plant extracts were prepared in acetone, petroleum ether and chloroform in concentrations of 20 mg ...

Production of scopadulciol by cultured tissues of Scoparia dulcis

Phytochemistry, 1996
Callus and multiple shoots derived from an SDX-type plant of Scoparia dulcis were found to produce scopadulciol (SDY). The amounts of diterpenoid produced by the multiple shoots were the same as those of the callus and were five times higher than those of the multiple shoots from an SDB-type plant.

Free Radical Scavenging Activity of Scoparia dulcis Extract

Journal of Medicinal Food, 2001
We studied the scavenging capabilities of an extract of Scoparia dulcis (a cosmopolitan weed widespread in Laos and Vietnam) for 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl and measured hemoglobin-catalyzed linoleic acid peroxidation with an oxygen electrode. Our results demonstrated strong antioxidant activity corresponding to mitigation of the generation of hydroxyl

Scoparic Acid A, a β-Glucuronidase Inhibitor from Scoparia dulcis

Journal of Natural Products, 1992
The 70% EtOH extract of Scoparia dulcis showed inhibitory activity against beta-glucuronidase from bovine liver. Bioassay-directed fractionation of the active extract led to the isolation of three labdane-type diterpene acids, scoparic acid A [1] [6-benzoyl-12-hydroxy-labda-8(17), 13-dien-18-oic acid], scoparic acid B [2] [6-benzoyl-14,15-dinor-13-oxo ...
