Abstract

Two flavonol glycosides, unusual for the Gentianaceae, clovin and the new quercetin 3-O-rhamnosyl-(1 → 6)-(4″-trans-p-coumaroyl)galactoside 7-O-rhamnoside (4″-trans-p-coumaroylclovin) have been isolated from the aerial parts of Coutoubea spicata. The bitter principles of C. spicata were identified as gentiopicrin and swertiamarin. Minor polyphenolic glycosides were characterized by high pressure liquid chromatography with photodiode array detection (HPLC-UV/Vis).
