Knipholone anthrone from Kniphofia foliosa
(University of Nairobi, 1993-11)
A new anthrone named knipholone anthrone was isolated from the stem of Kniphofia foliosa. Its structure was determined by spectral analysis as well as conversion to knipholone.
Chemotaxonomic significance of anthraquinones in the roots of asphodeloideae (asphodelaceae)
(1995)
The distribution of seven anthraquinones in the roots of some 46 species belonging to the genera Asphodelus, Asphodeline, Bulbine, Bulbinella and Kniphofia was studied by TLC and HPLC, 1,8-Dihydroxyanthraquinones based on ...
The chemotaxonomic significance of root anthraquinones and pre-anthraquinones in the genus Lomatophyllum (asphodelaceae)
(University of Nairobi, 1995-11)
The roots of seven species of Lomatophyllum were analysed by TLC and HPLC for the presence of nine different anthraquinones and pre-anthraquinones which are all known to be characteristic constituents of the subterranean ...
Three steroidal alkaloids from Buxus hildebrandtii
(University of Nairobi, 1990)
From the leaves of Buxus hildebrandtii three new steroidal alkaloids have been isolated and their structures determined by spectroscopic analysis. The following derived names have been suggested for these new alkaloids: ...
Chemotaxonomic survey of anthraquinones and pre-anthraquinones in roots of Aloe species
(University of Nairobi, 1995-04)
Root samples from 172 species of Aloe were surveyed by TLC and HPLC for the presence of anthraquinones and pre-anthraquinones. With the exception of the three species of the series Serrulatae, 1,8-Dihydroxyanthraquinones ...
Anthraquinones and chemotaxonomy of the asphodelaceae
(University of Nairobi, 1994)
Phytochemical investigations on three genera of the Asphodelaceae, Aloe, KniphoJla and
Bulbine showed that 1-methyl-8-hydroxyanthraquinones and anthrone-C-glycosides are
characteristic constituents of the genus Aloe, ...
