Lanostanoids of Amentotaxus formosana

J Nat Prod. 2002 Jan;65(1):79-81. doi: 10.1021/np010355b.

Abstract

Three lanostanoids, 3beta-methoxycycloartan-24(24(1))-ene (1), 3beta,23beta-dimethoxycycloartan-24(24(1))-ene (2), and 3beta,23beta-dimethoxy-5alpha-lanosta-24(24(1))-ene (3), were isolated from the leaves of Amentotaxus formosana. The structures of new compounds 2 and 3 were determined by NMR and MS studies, and the structure of 3 was further confirmed by X-ray crystallographic analysis.
