Studies on the Constituents of a Relic Plant Trochodendron aralioides and Bitter Principles from Azadirachta indica and Onychium japonicum
博士 === 國立清華大學 === 化學系 === 90 === A study on the constituents of Trochodendron aralioides, a relic plant, showed that lupeol (1), erythrodiol 3-palmitate (35), phytosteols (32-34), and nonacosane were isolated from the dried leaves; oleanolic acid (4), lupeol palmitate (37), fatty acid methyl ester,...

Transformation of 7,14-diol to 7,14-O-acetals or ketal only weakened the bitterness of onychiol B, suggesting the hydroxy group on C-20 and the unique cyathane skeleton were requied for bitterness.

Among the thirteen constituents of neem tree (Azadirachta indica) that were isolated in the laboratory of Prof. Kraus in Hohenheim University, Germany, four weakly active antifeedants toward Mexican beetle Epilachna varivestis, azadirone (39)、azadiradione (40)、epoxy-azadiradione (41), and gedunin (43) were tasteless; two moderate antifeedants 6-deacetylnimbin (45) and nimbolide (46) were weakly bitter; and a very active compound salannin (48) tasted very bitter. It seemed there were some relationships between antifeedant activity and bitterness.
For a compound to be bitter, it must consist of a ''bitter unit''- a DH/A pair, and a ''hydrophobic unit''. All bitter principles (45-50) of neem tree possessed ''hydrophobic unit'' but most of them were lack of ''bitter unit''. The bonding ''oxygen bridge'' between C-6 and C-28 may be considered as a limiting case of DH/A pair.
