Triterpene derivatives from Abies spectabilis leaves of Nepalese origin

Nat Prod Commun. 2011 Jun;6(6):793-8.

Abstract

Our ongoing studies of Nepalese medicinal plants has led to the isolation and characterization of five new triterpenes, two known triterpenes and two phenolic derivatives from Abies spectabilis (D.Don) Mirb leaves grown in the high mountain. The structures of the isolated compounds were characterized by means of 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic and MS techniques.
