Phenylpropanoid amides are a class of natural compounds where cinnamic acid derivatives and 2-phenyletylamine are connected by an amide bond. According to Sun et al, [1] phenylpropanoid amides occurence was reported for 19 species in the Solanaceae family, including genera as Capsicum, Datura, Lycianthes, Lycium, Lycopersicon, Solanum, and Withania. These compounds are recognized to display interesting medicinal properties, such as anti-inflammatory, antiviral, anti-cancer and anti-coagulant activities [2].

The roots, stems, leaves and fruits of Solanum paniculatum are used in folk medicine as well as in culinary. This species is the only Solanum recognized as phytotherapic by Brazilian Ministry of Health who included S. paniculatum among the herbal medicines available for basic pharmaceutical care in Brazil. The root and stems of S. paniculatum are indicated in the treatment of anemia and liver and digestive disorders. The S. paniculatum fruits are used for the preparation of pickles, in oil or vinegar and are also consumed after cooking with rice. Here we report the isolation of two isomeric glicosilated phenylpropanoid amides from the fruits of S. Paniculatum.

100 g of lyophillized S. Paniculatum fruits were homogeneized in a laboratory blender and successively extracted with hexane and ethyl acetate. The residue was then subjected to ultrasound assisted extraction with methanol. The methanol was evaporated and the residue was fractionated in a Sephadex LH20 column. The initial fractions from the Sephadex column were further subjected to semipreparative HPLC yielding 1(2.9 mg): HRESIMS (negative ion mode), deprotonated molecular ion at m/z 504.1875 [M-H]- (C25H30NO10), calcd. 504.1869; and m/z 342.1347 [(M- H)- – Hexose], (C19H20NO5)), calcd 342.1341, and 2(1.1 mg): HRESIMS (negative ion mode), deprotonated molecular ion at m/z 504.1875 [M-H]- (C25H30NO10), calcd. 504.1869; and m/z 342.1343 [(M- H)- – Hexose], calcd. 342.1341. Based on 1H, 13C, 1 and 2D NMR data, 1 and 2 were identified as N-trans-feruloyl-3-methoxytyramine-4-O-β-D-glucopyranoside and N-trans-feruloyl-3-methoxytyramine-4'-O-β-D-glucopyranoside, respectively. The aglycones of these two compounds were previously isolated by Sun et al (2015) from the roots of S. melongena. This is the first report on the occurrence of these compounds in S. paniculatum.
