This work describes the phytochemical study on ethanol extract from aerial parts of Paspalum atratum Swalen (Poaceae). The Paspalum genus is one of the most important grasses in Brazil and has characteristics compatible with its utilization in pastures for cattle. Phenylpropanoids were isolated by chromatographic methods (CC and HPLC) for the first time in this genus. These phenylpropanoids were identified as (R)-rosmarinic acid (RA, 1), 3-O-caffeoylquinic acid (2), phenylalanine (3), cis- and trans-3-O-coumaroylquinic acids (4 and 5), 5-O-caffeoylquinic acid (6, chlorogenic acid), 4-O-caffeoylquinic acid (7), and caffeic acid (8) by analyses of their MS, 1H and 13C NMR data, including COSY, HMBC, HSQC and DOSY, and comparison of these data with those reported in the literature for these type of compounds. The major compound isolated from the ethanol extract was RA (4.4%). It was used as standard for qualitative and quantitative analyses of extract. An efficient HPLC-DAD method for determination of RA in extract was established (r2 = 0.9979). The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were 4.00 and 12.13 μg/mL, respectively, and the validated range was 12.1-100.0 μg/mL. The intra-day and inter-day precisions of the method were evaluated by analyzing the blank solution spiked by RA. The standard deviation (SD) as evaluation parameter for the intra-day precision of peak area of target analyte was in the range of 1.57-2.06%. The inter-day precision (7 days) of the method was in the range of 0.54-1.69%. Satisfactory recovery (75-78%), evaluated by standard additions method, was achieved.
