RESUMO

Rollinia mucosa fruit has generated great interest due to the presence of bioactive compounds, which exhibit promising biological activities. Fingerprinting analytical techniques, chromatographic-diode array detection (DAD), infrared, mass spectrometric, 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra, associated with chemometric analysis and mixture design, were used to determine chemical discriminations of sun-exposed and self-shaded leaves of Rollinia mucosa in each of the four seasons. Sunlit leaves in winter presented higher metabolite signals related to the acetogenins, whereas shaded leaves have higher abundances of carbohydrates and terpenes. Sunlit leaves harvested in the summer had the smallest metabolite abundances. Fingerprints confirmed the presence of two acetogenins, annonacin A and annonastatin. Ternary and quaternary mixtures of the statistical mixture design were most effective for revealing important discriminations.
