A DIPEPTIDE DERIVATIVE FROM HYPERICUM JAPONICUM

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/0031-9422(91)80083-D

The structure of a novel peptide analogue saropeptate, N-benzoyl-L-phenylalanyl-L-phenylalaninol acetate, isolated from the whole plant of H. japonicum was elucidated by spectroscopic analysis and its absolute configuration determined by comparison with four synthetic diastereoisomers.Key Word Index - Hypericum japonicum; Guttiferae; dipeptide derivative; N-benzoyl-L-phenylalanyl-L-phenylalaninol acetate.
