Triterpenes of Saracococca saligna

ABSTRACT

The isolation of three triterpenes, Lupeol, Immol and Daturadiol is reported as a new source fromSarecococoa saligna. All the isolated compounds mew purified by column chromatography on silica-gel adma using n-hexane and dichloromethane as solvent. The identity of all the purified compounds was caufinned by chemical and spectroscopic methods isc hiding 'H, "C-NMR, UV, MS etc. Complete 3C-NMR chemical shifts were assigned to Daturadiol will the help of conventional and inverse 2D-NMR vedi?iques [DEPT, HMQC and HMBC] for the first time
