A new glycoside, 3-O-demethylcolchicine-3-O-alpha-d-glucopyranoside, from Gloriosa superba seeds

Nat Prod Lett. 2001;15(4):217-9. doi: 10.1080/10575630108041284.

Abstract

A new colchicine glycoside, 3-O-demethylcolchicine-3-O-alpha-D-glucopyranoside, has been isolated from Gloriosa superba seeds. The assigned structure has been corroborated by spectroscopic data and enzymatic hydrolysis.
