Popis: From methanolic extracts of flowers of Cordia alba (Plantae: Boraginaceae), allantoin was isolated in crystalline form. It was structurally characterized by analysis of uni- and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance, single crystal X-ray diffraction and mass spectrometry using electrospray ionization. The existence of allantoin in C. alba justifies the ethnobotanical use of Cordia species as a healing agent in folk medicine. Results shows that allantoin is a possible chemotaxonomic marker in this vegetable genus.
