Coumarins of Smyrniopsis aucheri

Chemical transformations and spectral characteristics have enabled us to establish the structure and configurations of three coumarins: (+)-2,2-dimethyl-3-hydroxy-3,4-dihydropyrano(5,6:6,7)coumarin (I); (+)-4-hydroxy-5-(1-hydroxy-1-methylethyl)-4,5-dihydrofuro(2,3:6,7)coumarin (II); and (+)-4-hydroxy-5-(1-glucopyranosyloxy-1-methylethyl)-4,5-dihydrofuro(2,3:6,7)-coumarin (III) isolated from the roots ofSmyrnopsis aucheri Karjag. This is the first time that these compounds, which have been called smyrinol, smyrindiol, and smyrindioloside, have been detected in nature.Institute of Chemistry of Plant Substances, Uzbekistan Republic Academy of Sciences, Tashkent.

Reduction of 1-alkyl-3-(2-quinolyl)quinolinium halides with sodium borohydride leads to 1-alkyl-1,2-dihydro-2,3-biquinolyls which, except for the ethoxycarbonyl derivative, undergo rearrangement to 1-alkyl-1,4-dihydro-2,3-biquinolyls.
