title: Phytochemical Study of Juglans regia L. Pericarps from Greece with a Chemotaxonomic Approach.
abstract: Phytochemical research of different polarity extracts from green Juglans regia L. pericarps from Greece afforded 32 compounds: four pentacyclic triterpenes (1 - 4), three sesquiterpenes (5 - 7), four tetralones (8 - 11), two naphthoquinones (12 and 13), seven phenolic acids (14 - 20), one diarylheptanoid (21), one neo-lignan (22), seven flavonoids (23 - 29), two phenylethanoids (30 and 31) and one hydrolysed tannin (32). Compounds 4 and 29 are isolated for the first time from the species, while compounds 3, 7, 20, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 28, 30 are reported for the first time in Juglandaceae. Chemotaxonomic significance of isolated compounds into Junglandaceae family is thoroughly discussed.
