Abstract
The genera Adenolobus, Cercis and Griffonia are closely related and classified within the subtribe Cercidinae of the Fabaceae family. Since no information exists on the secondary metabolites of the genus Adenolobus, this review focuses on the phytochemistry of Cercis and Griffonia. The genus Cercis is a source of interesting specialized metabolites including 82 phenolic compounds comprising 51 flavonoids, ten terpenoids, three cyanogenic glycosides, 54 volatile compounds, and some compounds from other compound classes. In the genus Griffonia, G. simplicifolia has been traditionally used for a variety of medicinal purposes, and research is mainly focused on this species. This review discusses the chemical structures of nine alkaloids reported from G. simplicifolia and compounds isolated from the genus Cercis along with their chemophenetic analysis. Finally, the review briefly mentions research gaps and potential directions for future investigations.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
