Sarmentosin is a glycoside and that is found in several plant species, notably Ribes nigrum (blackcurrants) and Sedum sarmentosum.[1][2]

Chemical structure

Sarmentosin has a molecular formula of C11H17NO7 and a molecular weight of 275.25 g/mol. Its IUPAC name is (E)-2-(hydroxymethyl)-4-[(2R,3R,4S,5S,6R)-3,4,5-trihydroxy-6-(hydroxymethyl)oxan-2-yl]oxybut-2-enenitrile.[3]

Sources

Sarmentosin can be extracted from plants in the Rhodiola genus and blackcurrants. Recent studies have specifically identified sarmentosin as a key bioactive compound in blackcurrants that contributes to its monoamine oxidase inhibitory effects.[1]

Ecology

At least two Parnassius butterflies, Parnassius apollo and Parnassius smintheus, sequester sarmentosin and other hydroxynitrile glucosides in their bodies from the Sedum plants they eat.[4]
