Isolation and Identification of Phyllodulcin and Skimmin from the Cultured Cells of Amacha (Hydrangea macrophyllaSeringe var. Thunbergii Makino)

Abstract
Both compounds were isolated from cell cultures and determined by comparison with authentic samples. Data are given on melting points, IR, UV and NMR spectra. The occurrence of phyllodulcin and skimmin in cultured cells indicated a strong ability to synthesize coumarins and isocoumarin derivatives.
