The seed kernels and hulls of Paeonia lactiflora Pall.(Chinese peony) contain numerous bioactive compounds We extracted monoterpene glycosides and oligostilbenes from three varieties of P. lactiflora seed kernels and hulls, and analyzed the bioactive compounds in these samples. The results indicated that seed kernels contained significant concentrations of monoterpene glycosides, while seed hulls contained high concentrations of oligostilbene compounds The profiles of monoterpene glycosides and oligostilbene compounds in extracts were significantly dependent on the P. lactiflora variety. Ultra-performance liquid chromatog.-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry and reference to literature data enabled 96 compounds to be tentatively characterised, including 24 monoterpene glycosides, 16 oligostilbene compounds, and several phenolic compounds, iridoid glycosides, diterpenoids and triterpenoids. This is the first study to find most of these compounds in P. lactiflora seed kernels and hulls. Paeoniflorin (1779.61 ± 10.33 mg/100 g) was the predominant monoterpene glycoside in seed kernels, while hulls had the highest concentrations of sufruticosol A (791.93 ± 25.09 mg/100 g) and trans-ε-viniferin (607.4 ± 16.22 mg/100 g). All of the results confirmed that P. lactiflora seed kernels and hulls contain substantial concentrations of natural products. These products may be useful as medicines or as ingredients in functional foods. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, (E)-4-(3,5-Dihydroxystyryl)benzene-1,2-diol (cas: 10083-24-6Reference of 10083-24-6).
(E)-4-(3,5-Dihydroxystyryl)benzene-1,2-diol (cas: 10083-24-6) belongs to alcohols. Alcohols are among the most common organic compounds. They are used as sweeteners and in making perfumes, are valuable intermediates in the synthesis of other compounds, and are among the most abundantly produced organic chemicals in industry. A multistep synthesis may use Grignard-like reactions to form an alcohol with the desired carbon structure, followed by reactions to convert the hydroxyl group of the alcohol to the desired functionality.Reference of 10083-24-6
