No. of bitstreams: 1 DissFCP.pdf: 4494134 bytes, checksum: 579efc0cd432aa20fa0626c57daa20b5 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2015-03-27 / Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq) / During its evolutionary process, plants have developed biosynthetic pathways by which they produce and accumulate a wide variety of secondary compounds that receive this name because they are not directly involved in the primary processes of plant growth and development. Many of these secondary compounds are responsible for chemical protection of plants against pathogens, herbivores, competing plants, ultraviolet radiation and other environmental stresses. The production of secondary metabolites can vary quantitatively and qualitatively between individuals of the same species, between plants of different species, between organs, between stages of plant development and are under influences of environmental factors. Studies of the biological effects of these compounds represent an important tool for the development of more specific and natural pesticides that are less harmful to the environment, as well as drugs and natural preservatives for food. Myrcia splendens (Sw.) DC. is a tree species found in the Brazilian cerrado and there are few published papers dealing with this species and its secondary metabolites to act as potential natural pesticides, antioxidant and antifungal. The methodology for the extraction of secondary metabolites can determine the composition of extracts and influence the activity of them. In this sense, in the first chapter of this work investigations were carried out on the phytotoxic potential of extracts of M. splendens young leaves from two different extraction methodologies. The 2C extract had the highest overall phytotoxic activity, showing promise in the search phytotoxic substances. In the second chapter, we investigate the phytotoxic potential of extracts and fractions of mature leaves of M. splendens from the two extraction methods carried out and was identified one of the secondary metabolites possibly associated with the phytotoxicity of the most active fractions. 2B fraction had the highest total inhibitory activity and so was fractionated, resulting in 14 fractions, which were also tested in wheat coleoptile. The FM8 and FM9 fractions, which had inhibitory activity and sufficient income, were subjected to HPLC for isolation of major compound. Identification by NMR spectra revealed that the major compound is miricitrin (myricetin-3-O-rhamnoside). In the last chapter, the extracts of mature leaves of M. splendens were tested for their antioxidant potential based on their ability to react with the free radical DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhidrazila) and antifungal potential using the plant pathogenic fungus Alternaria alternata as the target species. Most of the extracts showed a strong antioxidant activity, especially those iv! ! extracted with more polar solvents. On the other hand, only one of the extracts (2B) showed inhibitory activity on mycelial growth of the phytopathogenic fungus tested. / Ao longo do seu processo evolutivo, as plantas desenvolveram rotas biossintéticas pelas quais produzem e acumulam uma imensa variedade de compostos secundários, que recebem este nome por não estarem diretamente envolvidos nos processos primários de crescimento e desenvolvimento vegetal. Muitos desses compostos secundários são responsáveis pela defesa química das plantas contra patógenos, herbívoros, plantas competidoras, radiação ultravioleta e outros estresses ambientais. A produção de metabólitos secundários pode variar quantitativa e qualitativamente entre indivíduos de uma mesma espécie, entre plantas de espécies diferentes, entre órgãos, entre estágios do desenvolvimento vegetal e sobre influências de fatores ambientais. Os estudos realizados sobre os efeitos biológicos destes compostos representam uma importante ferramenta para o desenvolvimento de agroquímicos naturais mais específicos e menos prejudiciais ao ambiente, bem como de medicamentos e conservantes naturais para a indústria alimentícia. Myrcia splendens (Sw.) DC. é uma especie arbórea encontrada no cerrado brasileiro e existem poucos os trabalhos publicados que tratam de investigações do potencial desta espécie e de seus metabólitos secundários para atuarem como pesticidas naturais, antioxidantes e antifúngicos. A metodologia empregada para a extração de metabólitos secundários pode determinar a constituição e rendimento dos extratos e influenciar a atividade dos mesmos. Nesse sentido, no primeiro capítulo deste trabalho foram realizadas investigações sobre o potencial fitotóxico de extratos de folhas jovens de M. splendens oriundos de duas metodologias de extração diferentes. O extrato 2C teve a maior atividade fitotóxica geral, se mostrando promissor na busca de substâncias fitotóxicas. No segundo capítulo, foi investigado o potencial fitotóxico de extratos e frações de folhas maduras de M. splendens das duas metodologias de extração realizadas e foi identificado um dos metabólitos secundários possivelmente associado à fitotoxicidade das frações mais ativas. A fração 2B apresentou a maior atividade inibitória total e por isso foi fracionada, resultando em 14 frações, que também foram testadas em coleóptilos de trigo. As frações FM8 e FM9, que possuíam atividade inibitória e rendimento suficiente, foram submetidas a CLAE para isolamento do composto majoritário. A identificação foi feita por espectros de RMN e revelou que o composto majoritário é a miricitrina (miricetina-3-O-ramnosídeo). No último capítulo, os extratos de folhas maduras de M. splendens foram testadas quanto ao seu potencial antioxidante baseado habilidade de reagir com o radical livre DPPH (2,2-difenil-1-picrilhidrazila) e antifúngico usando como espécie-alvo o fungo fitopatogênico Alternaria ii! ! alternata. A maior parte dos extratos apresentaram atividade antioxidante muito forte, especialmente aqueles extraídos com solventes mais polares. Por outro lado, apenas um dos extratos (2B) apresentou atividade inibitória no crescimento micelial do fitopatógeno testado.

L'étude phytochimique de plantes médicinales suscite depuis toujours beaucoup d'intérêt à cause de la variété de métabolites secondaires à activités biologiques intéressantes fabriqués par les plantes. Dans ce travail de thèse, notre contribution à l'amélioration de la connaissance de quelques plantes médicinales ivoiriennes par l'isolement et la caractérisation de leurs molécules a été rapportée. Les espèces Gouania longipetala, Ventilago africana (Rhamnaceae), Combretum racemosum (Combretaceae) et Glyphaea brevis (Malvaceae) ont été investiguées. Soixante métabolites secondaires ont été identifiés par les techniques spectroscopiques (RMN et SM). Une première partie présente l'investigation phytochimique des parties aériennes de G. longipetala qui a conduit à l'isolement de 23 composés dont neuf saponosides à squelette de type dammarane et quatre hétérosides flavoniques de structures nouvelles. Dans un second temps, nos travaux ont mené à l'élucidation de 12 flavonoïdes dont deux nouveaux et un acide sesquiterpénique à partir des feuilles de V. africana. Ces flavonoïdes ont été identifiés à la rhamnocitrine substituée en position 3 par une chaîne diosidique ou triosidique. Les racines de Combretum racemosum ont fourni 16 triterpènes dont un à squelette de type 18-oléanène de structure nouvelle. Finalement, un dérivé du cinnamide et dix nouveaux C-glycosides de phényl nonane substitués en position 9 par un iminosucre ont été caractérisés à partir des racines de G. brevis. Cette étude correspond à la première identification structurale de métabolites secondaires des espèces Gouania longipetala, Ventilago africana (Rhamnaceae) et Combretum racemosum (Combretaceae). / The phytochemical study of medicinal plants has always raised a lot of interest because of the variety of secondary metabolites with interesting biological activities produced by plants. In this thesis, our contribution to improving the knowledge of some ivorian medicinal plants by the isolation and characterization of their molecules has been reported.Species Gouania longipetala, Ventilago africana (Rhamnaceae), Combretum racemosum (Combretaceae) and Glyphaea brevis (Malvaceae) were investigated. Sixty secondary metabolites were identified by spectroscopic techniques (NMR and MS).The first part presents the phytochemical investigation of the aerial parts of G. longipetala which led to the isolation of 23 compounds including nine new saponins with skeleton type dammarane and four new flavonoids glycosides.In a second step, our work has led to the elucidation of 12 flavonoids including two original and a sesquiterpene acid from the leaves of V. africana. These flavonoids have been identified as rhamnocitrin substituted at position 3 by a disaccharide or trisaccharide chain. The roots of Combretum racemosum provided 16 triterpenes and one of them is a new compound with a skeleton type 18-oleanene. Finally, a derivative of cinnamide and ten new alkyl phenyl C-glycosides substituted at position 9 by iminosugar have been characterized from the roots of G. brevis.This study represents the first structural identification of secondary metabolites of the species Gouania longipetala, Ventilago africana (Rhamnaceae) and Combretum racemosum (Combretaceae).

L'étude phytochimique d'Armeria maritima et d'Helichrysum stoechas a permis d'isoler pour la première fois 31 molécules dans le genre Armeria dont 4 nouveaux flavonols diglycosylés, ainsi que le développement d'une stratégie de déréplication pour l'étude d'H. stoechas. Dans les deux espèces, nous avons relevé une richesse en polyphénols, qui pourraient être extraits par des techniques respectueuses de l'environnement comme la SFE. En parallèle, ces deux halophytes ont montré un fort potentiel biologique avec des extraits et des molécules dotés d'activités anti-oxydante, anti-collagénase, anti-inflammatoire ou encore cicatrisante. De plus, nous avons initié pour la première fois des suspensions cellulaires d'A. maritima et identifié des éliciteurs comme le méthyl jasmonate permettant d’augmenter dans les cellules d'H. stoechas la teneur en acide 3,5-dicaféoylquinique, un bio-marqueur de l'activité anti-inflammatoire. La production de molécules bioactives dans des cultures végétales in vitro pourrait par la suite être transposée à plus grande échelle, afin d’amplifier le potentiel de valorisation de ces deux halophytes en dermo-cosmétique. / The phytochemical study of Armeria maritima and Helichrysum stoechas led to the isolation of 31 molecules never reported before in the genus Armeria, 4 of which being new flavonol diglycosides, and to the development of a dereplication strategy for the study of H. stoechas. In both species, an abundance of polyphenols was observed, which could be extracted with eco-friendly methods like SFE. Both halophytes showed a strong biological potential as their extracts and molecules demonstrated antioxidant, anti-collagenase, anti-inflammatory and wound healing activities. Moreover, we initiated for the first time cell suspensions of A. maritima, and identified elicitors, such as methyl-jasmonate, which led to H. stoechas cell suspensions with an increased content in 3,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid, a bio-marker of anti-inflammatory activity. The production of bioactive molecules in "plant cell factories" could be scaled-up to enhance the valorization potential of both halophytes in dermocosmetics.
