Pimpinella monoica is now listed as a synonym for Pimpinella wallichiana (Miq.) Gandhi [1] a plant species belonging to the genus Pimpinella.
Distribution
[edit]The plant is endemic to India.[1]
Chemistry
[edit]Furanochromones, like pimolin, can be found in P. monoica.[2] The plant is found to contain the furocoumarin isopimpenellin and five biogenetically related furocoumarins viz khellin, visnagin, visamminol, ammiol and khellol.[3]
