“…4) Chromatographic separation of the hexane and CH 2 Cl 2 extracts led to the isolation of two new acetylenic fatty acids (1, 2), a new triglyceride (3), as well as, 11 known compounds, including 3b-hydroxy-11-oxours-12-en-28-oic acid 5) (isolated as its acetate derivative), 3b-hydroxy-27-p-(Z)-coumaroyloxyolean-12-en-28-oic acid, 6,7) 3-oxo-11a,12a-epoxyurs-13b,28-olide (4), 8) 3b-hydroxy11a,12a-epoxyurs-13b,28-olide (5), 8,9) 3b-hydroxyurs-11-en-13(28)-lactone (6), 8,[10][11][12] oleanolic acid (7), 13,14) b-sitosterol, 15) uncarinic acid E (3b-hydroxy-27-(E)-p-coumaroyloxyolean-12-en-28-oic acid, 8), 6,7) ursolic acid (9), 13,14) ursonic acid (10), and 3b-(formyloxy)-urs-12-en-28-oic acid (11). 16) Compound 5 was reported to be isolated from Thevetia neriifolia, 9) but the reported NMR chemical shifts were not consistent with the proposed structure.…”
