Oxylipins Arabidopsides C and D from Arabidopsis thaliana

Abstract
Two new oxylipins, arabidopsides C (1) and D (2), were isolated from the aerial parts of Arabidopsis thaliana, and the structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated using spectroscopic data, primarily NMR and MS, and chemical means. Arabidopsides C (1) and D (2) are rare digalactosyl diacylglycerides containing 12-oxophytodienoic acid and/or dinor-oxophytodienoic acid. Arabidopside D (2) and arabidopsides A (3) and B (4), which were also isolated from this plant, exhibited inhibitory effects on the growth of the root of cress (Lepidium sativum) seedlings at 5 × 10-5 mol/L.
