Abstract

Phytochemical investigation of methylenechloride/methanol (1:1) extract of the air-dried aerial parts of Senecio glaucus L. afforded three benzofuran derivatives (1-3); 1-(6-hydroxy-2-(prop-1-en-2-yl) benzofuran-5-yl) ethanone, 1-1'-(6-hydroxybenzofuran-2,5-diyl) diethanone, and 1-1'-(6-methoxybenzofuran-2,5-diyl) diethanone. The crude extract and isolated compounds (1-3) were screened against S. aureus and E. coli and also against C. albicans and A. flavus. Compound 1 and 2 were more potent than 3 against S. aureus and E. coli, however, the crude extract and isolated compounds (1-3) showed weak antifungal activity against C. albicans and A. flavus. In addition, a biosynthetic pathway of isolated compounds (1-3) was proposed, as well as the chemotaxonomic significance of the reported benzofuran and furanoeremophilane derivatives from S. glaucus compared to those isolated from other Senecio species was also studied.
