Phytochemical studies and antibacterial activity of Centaurium pulchellum Druce.
Two isocoumarin derivatives, one new, erythricin (1) and a known erythrocentaurin (2) were isolated from the whole plant of Centaurium pulchellum Druce. The 13C-NMR data of compound 2 are described. The structures of compounds 1, 2 were elucidated on the basis of spectral analysis including 2D-NMR experiments. Antibacterial and brine shrimp lethality assays are also described on the fractions of the plant extract.
