Abstract

The Shorea genus is known for its abundance of sources of oligostilbenoids, which exhibit diverse biological functions. Nevertheless, despite its considerable potential, there remains a dearth of phytochemical investigations including Shorea materialis. Consequently, this study aims to isolate the chemical constituents from the stem bark of this species. The crude extract of S. materialis was obtained from the maceration technique and fractionation using vacuum liquid chromatography. The resulting fractions were further purified via column chromatography. The molecular structures of the isolated molecules were determined using various spectroscopic techniques. Two dimer stilbenoids, ampelopsins A (1) and D (2), three trimers, namely α-viniferin (3), hopeanolin (4) and davidiol A (5), one tetramer, vaticanol B (6), together with two phenolic compounds, p-hydroxybenzaldehyde and (7) 2,3,5-trihydroxybenzoic acid (8) were effectively isolated. The isolation of these compounds was the first report from this species.

Keywords: Dipterocarpaceae; oligostilbenoids; phenolic compounds; Shorea materialis   

 

Abstrak

Genus Shorea terkenal dengan kekayaan sumber oligostilbenoid yang menunjukkan pelbagai fungsi biologi. Walaupun genus ini mempunyai potensi yang tinggi, kajian fitokimia berkaitan spesies daripada genus ini masih sedikit termasuklah Shorea materialis. Oleh itu, kajian ini dijalankan bertujuan untuk mengasingkan sebatian kimia daripada kulit batang spesies ini. Ekstrak kasar S. materialis diperoleh daripada kaedah rendaman dan fraksinasi menggunakan kromatografi cecair vakum. Fraksi yang diperoleh seterusnya ditulenkan lagi menggunakan kromatografi turus. Struktur molekul sebatian yang telah dipencilkan ditentukan menggunakan pelbagai teknik spektroskopi. Dua sebatian stilbenoid dimer, ampelopsin A (1) dan D (2), tiga stilbenoid trimer, iaitu α-viniferin (3), hopeanolin (4) dan davidiol A (5), satu stilbenoid tetramer, vaticanol B (6), bersama dengan dua sebatian fenol, p-hidroksibenzaldehid dan (7) asid benzoik 2,3,5-trihidroksi (8) telah berjaya dipencilkan. Penulenan sebatian ini merupakan pertama kali dilaporkan daripada spesies ini.

Kata kunci: Dipterocarpaceae; oligostilbenoid; sebatian fenol; Shorea materialis
