Abstract: | Mollugin was isolated from the extract of Rubia tinctorum roots. Lucidin was obtained by semisynthesis from xanthopurpurin. Mollugin crystallises in space group P-1 (No. 2), a = 8.5857(7), b = 11.473(4), c = 15.024(1) Å, α = 77.64(2)∘, β = 89.36(1)∘, γ = 89.71(2)∘, and V = 1445.5(5) Å3, lucidin crystallises in space group P21/c (No.14), a = 16.800(6), b = 9.637(2), c = 7.073(7) Å, β = 98.01(5)∘, and V = 1134(1) Å3. |
