Abstract

We report here the results of the study of the chemical composition of Cyperus esculentus rhizomes. Ethanolic extracts have been separated by column chromatography and analyzed by magnetic resonance spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. Quercetin, stigmasterol, and linoleic and oleic acid glycerol esters, together with 4-chlorobutyl oleate, oleamide, myricetin, tyramine and N-feruloyltyramine, found for the first time in Cyperus esculentus rhizomes, have been isolated and quantified in the extracts. Alkaloids have not been detected, and the presence of flavonoids and sterols is moderate.<br /> (Copyright © 2019 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.)
