A New Neolignan Glycoside from Vetiveria zizanioides Roots [PDF]
Natural Product Communications, 2016 A new neolignan glycoside (1) and four known aromatic compounds (2-5) were isolated from the roots of Vetiveria zizanioides. The structure of compound 1 was determined based on spectroscopic analysis and hydrolysis. The structure of known flavonoid glycoside 3 was confirmed by X-ray crystallography. Compound 5 showed weak cytotoxic activity against HL-
