Abstract
Rossoliside (7-methylhydrojuglone 4-O-glucoside) was isolated from Dro sera rotundifolia, together with hydroplumbagin CO-glucoside, from D. intermedia, both of which were produced by in vitro micropropagation. Hydroplumbagin glucoside released the corresponding 1,4-naphthoquinone (plumbagin) more rapidly than rossoliside (7-methyljuglone). These gl ucosides can be detected in plant extracts by reversed-phase TLC and a ppearance of the corresponding free quinones after treatment with beta -glucosidase.
