A phytochemical investigation of the bulbs and flowers of Hymenocallis littoralis SALISB., cultivated in Egypt, was carried out, which resulted in the isolation of four alkaloids, lycorine (1), hippeastrine (2), 11-hydroxyvittatine (3), and (+)-8-O-demethylmaritidine (4), and of two flavonoids, quercetin 3'-O-glucoside (5), and rutin (6). The volatile constituents of the plant flowers were analyzed for the first time by GC/MS, which led to the identification of 26 known compounds (Table 1). Finally, the antimicrobial activity of the petroleum ether extract of the flowers of H. littoralis was investigated.
对种植于埃及的海滨水鬼蕉的鳞茎和花朵进行了植物化学研究，从中分离出四种生物碱，即石蒜碱（1）、海葱素（2）、11-羟基维塔丁（3）和（+）-8-O-去甲基马里替丁（4），以及两种黄酮类化合物，槲皮素3'-O-葡萄糖苷（5）和芦丁（6）。首次采用气相色谱/质谱联用技术对该植物花朵的挥发性成分进行了分析，鉴定出26种已知化合物（表1）。最后，对海滨水鬼蕉花朵的石油醚提取物的抗菌活性进行了研究。
