Three new steroids named as shuilongguine I (1), shuilongguine II (2) and shuilongguine III (3), together with eleven known compounds were isolated from Polypodium niponicum (Chinese name “Shuilonggu”, Berberidaceae). Their structures were deduced by spectroscopic methods and 2D NMR experiments.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
