Metabolism and roles of stilbenes in plants
TL;DR: Stilbenes are a small family of plant secondary metabolites derived from the phenylpropanoid pathway, and produced in a number of unrelated plant species as mentioned in this paper, which have numerous implications in plant disease resistance and human health.
Journal ArticleDOI
Resveratrol, pterostilbene, and piceatannol in vaccinium berries.
TL;DR: These naturally occurring stilbenes, known to be strong antioxidants and to have cancer chemopreventive activities, will add to the purported health benefits derived from the consumption of these small fruits.

TL;DR: Pterostilbene was shown to be as effective as resveratrol in inhibiting electrolyte leakage caused by herbicide-induced oxidative damage, and both compounds had the same activity as alpha-tocopherol.

Dalbergichromene : A new neoflavonoid from stem-bark and heartwood of Dalbergia sissoo
TL;DR: The stem-bark of Dalbergia sissoo has yielded, besides the known compounds dalbergenone, dalbergin and methyl dalBERgin, a new 4-phenyl chromene, Dalbergichromene as discussed by the authors.

The neoflavanoid group of natural products—II.: The examination of Machaerium scleroxylon and some biogenetic proposal regarding the neoflavanoids
W.B. Eyton,W. D. Ollis,M. Fineberg,Otto R. Gottlieb,I. Salignac de Souza Guimarães,M. Taveira Magalhães +5 more
TL;DR: The co-occurrence of dalbergiones and dalbergines suggests that they have a common biosynthetic origin in which cinnamyl pyrophosphate is the postulated precursor of the neoflavanoids as mentioned in this paper.

Dalbergia species—VII : The isolation and structure of melanoxin a new dihydrobenzofuran from Dalbergia melanoxylon guill. and perr. (leguminoseae)
TL;DR: In this paper, the structure of (−)-melanoxin is described and a new 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran is described, which is the first known (S)-4′-hydroxy-4methoxydalbergione (V) melannein (VI) and 2,5-dimethoxyquinone were also isolated.
