ABSTRACT: Species
from Moraceae family stand out in popular medicine and phytotherapy, have been for
example used as expectorants,
bronchodilators, anthelmintics and treatment of skin diseases, such as vitiligo,
due to the presence of compounds with proven biological activity, as the
coumarins. Coumarins are lactones with 1,2-benzopyrone basic structure, and are
widely distributed in the plant kingdom, both in free form, and in glycosylated
form. This work reports a literature review, describing the data of 13C
NMR from 53 coumarins isolated from the family Moraceae, and data comparison
between genera who presented photochemical studies, in order to contribute to
the chemotaxonomy of this family.
