included eight anthocyanins (ternatin C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, and
D3, as well as preternatin A3 and C4), delphinidin glycosides,
3-O-glucoside, 3-O-(2”-O-rhamnosyl)-glucoside, and 3-O-(2”-
O-rhamnosyl-6”-O-malonyl)-glucoside. Mome inositol (38.7%)
and pentanal (14.3%) were found in the water extract of Clitoria
ternatea flowers. In comparison, mome inositol (33.6%), cyclohexene,
1-methyl-4-(1-methylethylidene) (7.1%), acetic acid, cyanide
(6.5%), and hirsutene (5.7%) were found in the methanol extract of
the same flowers. Organic compounds such as 1H-Cycloprop[e]
azulene and 1a,2,3,5,6,7,7a,7b-octahydro-1,1,4,7-tetramethyl[1aR-
(1aà,7à,7aá,7bà)]- (alternative spelling: varidifloren), Pterocarpin,
6H-Benzofuro[3,2-c]Isoparvifuran, [1]benzopyran, 6a,11a-dihydro-
3,9-dimethoxy-, [1]benzopyran (6aR-cis)-, hexadecanoic acid,
Myo-Inositol. The ethanol extract of the aerial portions of Clitoria
ternatea yielded 4-C-methyl-1,2,3,5-cyclohexanetetrol (1à, 2à, 3à,
5á)- and 1-diethoxypropane (Vankar & Srivastava, 2010).
Numerous ternatins have been isolated from Clitoria
ternatea flowers, and their structures have been identified as
delphinidin 3-malonylG with 3’-GCG-5’-GC, 3’-GCG-5’-GC,
3’-GCGCG-5’-GC, 3’-GCGCG-5’-GC, and 3’-GCGC-5’-GC side
chains, where G is D-glucose and C is p-coumaric acid. Raw ripe
seeds have low levels of condensed tannins (0-2.48 mg catechin/g)
and precipitable polyphenol proteins (0.16-0.77 mg tannic
acid/g). Clitoria ternatea methanol extract presented anxiolytic,
depressive, anticonvulsant, and antistress effects in animal studies.
Tannins, resins, starch, taraxerol, and taraxerone are among the
active compounds (Al-Snafi, 2016; Vankar & Srivastava, 2010).
Klitorienolactone A and B improve memory and inhibit
acetylcholinesterase. (Z)-9,17-octadecadienal and n-hexadecenoic
acid inhibit monoamine oxidase, thus potentially combating
depression, anxiety, and cognitive disorders in Alzheimer’s and
Parkinson’s diseases. Flavanol glycoside 3,5,40-trihydroxy-
7-methoxyflavonol-3-O-β-d-xylopyranosyl-(1,3)-O-β-d-
galactopyranoside exhibits antimicrobial activity, while delphinidin
and malvidin have inhibitory activity against various types of cancer
(Chayaratanasin et al., 2019; Mohamed & Taha, 2011; Rajamanickam
et al., 2015; Singh et al., 2018; Vidana Gamage et al., 2021).
