Abstract

Two new coumarins, 13- O-[ beta- D-apiofuranosyl(1-->6)- beta- D-glucopyranosyl]-(12 R)-heraclenol ( 1) and (12 R,12" R)-diheraclenol ( 2) were isolated from the acetone extract of the fresh roots of Heracleum rapula. Their structures were determined by means of spectroscopic analysis and, in the case of compound 1, the structure elucidation was supported by acid hydrolysis. Compound 1 is a coumarin glycoside while 2 is a coumarin dimer. The inhibitory effects of 1, its aglycone ( 3), and 2 on rabbit platelet aggregation induced by PAF, AA and ADP were tested. Weak activities were observed for each compound with the percentages of inhibition in the range of 0.7 - 24.8 %.
