Summary
Five flavonoids (1-5) were isolated from leaves of Scurrula parasitica L. parasitizing on the mulberry tree (Morus alba L.), including kaempferol (1), quercetin (2), juglanin (3), avicularin (4), and quercitrin (5). Their chemical structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods (NMR and MS) and comparison with literature data. Notably, compounds 1 and 3 were isolated from S. parasitica L. for the first time.
Keywords: Scurrula parasitica L.; Loranthaceae; Flavonoids; Avicularin; Quercitrin.
