Cycloartane glycosides from leaves of Oxyanthus pallidus

Phytochemistry. 2010 Dec;71(17-18):2182-6. doi: 10.1016/j.phytochem.2010.09.014.

Abstract

From the MeOH extract of leaves of Oxyanthus pallidus, three cycloartane glycosides, named pallidiosides A-C, were isolated together with two known compounds, oleanolic acid and 3-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-β-sitosterol. The structures of pallidiosides A-C were assigned on the basis of spectral studies and comparison with published literature data. The known compounds were identified by means of Co TLC and confirmed by their physical constants.
