An ethanol extract of the milled flowers (defatted with hexane) yielded the odorous principle of the tree, 4,5-dimethyl-3-hydroxy-2,5-dihydrofuran-2-one (sotolon, [[http://www.thegoodscentscompany.com/data/rw1029011.html|caramel furanone]]), together with its precursors, 3-amino-4,5-dimethyl-2(5H)-furanone and 2S,3S,4R-4-hydroxyisoleucine. The leaves of Quararibea turbinata showed a similar chemical profile. \\ | An ethanol extract of the milled flowers (defatted with hexane) yielded the odorous principle of the tree, 4,5-dimethyl-3-hydroxy-2,5-dihydrofuran-2-one (sotolon, [[http://www.thegoodscentscompany.com/data/rw1029011.html|caramel furanone]]), together with its precursors, 3-amino-4,5-dimethyl-2(5H)-furanone and 2S,3S,4R-4-hydroxyisoleucine.

"Inasmuch as the 7-butyrolactones can act as convulsants and anticonvulsants, and since Q.funebris flowers are used medicinally as a sort of anti-anxiety folk remedy-a common side effect of all anticonsulvant drugs is sedation-it seems reasonable to suggest that the lactones isolated in this study may act in a similar way, corroborating once again the wisdom of the early meso-American peoples in their use of biodynamic plants. \\ | "Inasmuch as the 7-butyrolactones can act as convulsants and anticonvulsants, and since Q.funebris flowers are used medicinally as a sort of anti-anxiety folk remedy-a common side effect of all anticonsulvant drugs is sedation-it seems reasonable to suggest that the lactones isolated in this study may act in a similar way, corroborating once again the wisdom of the early meso-American peoples in their use of biodynamic plants." \\ |
