Cotinus coggygria wood: novel flavanone dimer and development of an HPLC/UV/MS method for the simultaneous determination of fourteen phenolic constituents.

ABSTRACT: Phytochemical investigations of Cotinus coggygria Scop. wood, a medicinal and tinctorial plant used since antiquity, resulted in the isolation and structure elucidation of the novel C-3/C-3'' dimer of butin (3',4',7-trihydroxyflavanone) and other known compounds: gallic acid and its methyl ester; catechin; profisetinidins: fisetinidol-(4α→8)-(+)-catechin and epifisetinidol-(4β→8)-(+)-catechin; flavanonols: fustin and dihydroquercetagetin; flavanones: butin and eriodictyol; flavonols: fisetin and quercetin; the chalcone butein and the aurone sulfuretin. The isolated compounds were used for the development and validation of a HPLC-method which enables the determination of these bioactive substances in C. coggygria extracts. Separation was possible on an ether-linked phenyl column material, u
